Thanks for your reply Flyhard.

Pity it won't snap. The instructions say it'll do an inverted flat spin (climbing if you like!) but I know what you mean. I have a few fun fly types that can get into an inverted spin but won't snap or spin upright without everything being just perfect.

What does your's weigh? My instructions say 13.5 pounds and I was thinking good hovering may be a bit marginal at that weight without resorting to a pipe and nitro. Whadyathink? Also any ideas on prop size?

Like your colour scheme - looks real good.

I was thinking maybe I could build the fuz' from thick polystyrene foam skinned with 3/32 balsa. Any thoughts?
