Hi Jon-
I'm getting closer with my Skystar. Have the fuselage & belly pan area on the wing glassed. Will get the stab and canopy glued in & some nice fillets made then on to priming & painting. Using PPG Concept paint system as sold by Radio South. The wing & stab will be film covered, but if I had it to do over I would probably have sheeted the entire wing & just glassed and painted the entire airplane. Very little of the wing is "open" as it is anyway. It will still be light & the YS 1.10 will be plenty of power
Can't wait to get it done & in the air- should be a good one! I promise I'll post pics once it's finished.
Seriously considering the MK TopStar 2 for my next pattern project, although the next model on the bench will need to be a new "vintage" pattern model as I am also active in our Vintage Radio Control Society. Planning on building Wolfgang Matt's 1969 design Superstar (was lucky enough to meet someone here on RCU from the UK that sent me the plans) and would definitely be the only flier to show up with that model at the next VRCS reunion. Even have a NIB Webra blackhead .61 to power it.
Regards,
Scott
