Default RE: BUSA 1/4 Scale Fokker Dr 1

You are gonna love your Fokker! I had one 10 years ago or so. I bought these Arizona arfs ~7 years which were so terrible I shelved them. I have since decided to knock out some of these old projects. I totally reworked these things with cable runs... even to the ailerons, made new wheels with bungeed axles... you name it! These were covered in SIG Koverall and Stix-It, sealed with nitrate, painted a butyrate cream base color then the streaking applied with a brush. I used blue vinyl tape for masking. I just need to finish a few details like cockpit coaming, pilot, struts, step, lift handles and some weight tables. The Solartex should give great results with less fuss.
