RE: Monocote
Not sure of the color RG but it is growing on me, and like me maybe it gets better with age too. I know what you mean by contrasting colors the worst plane I had was white with orange wing tips, I don't know why but that plane would litteraly disapear in the sky. Now it is dark with light highlites for the top and light with dark highlights for the bottom. I have read that it should be the other way around but it works for me.
