I do this frequently. I remove the horns, rudder, ailerons, elevator and do it right. Takes me about a month. Sometimes I by an Arf like the WM Midget and re cover. Many nice planes out their but the covering and colors stink. My Shoestring is next on the list this winter. I have a few hindred flights on this baby and has serviced me well and time for a rebuild. I was thinking of that hot neon pink!!!
