Default Predator "Two flights to disaster"

Thanks. In the picture you can see the wingtip of my backup predator, it's done the same way, but blue instead of red. I know it's a fairly plain looking scheme, but it shows up really well in the air.

Your predators look like they've seen better days. The term "war weary" comes to mind.

I don't have any pictures of my red predator after the midair or the wing folding, but at a distance it looks the same, it's only up close can you see all the seams in the covering, and the patches covering up the holes that were put in it.

I really love how the predators fly, espeically at slow speeds and high angle of attack. I don't know about other people's but mine always give a little yaw "wiggle" when I yank in too much elevator, giving me a split second to avoid rolling out of loops or turns.
