RE: DETAILING AND FLYING DH-82a IN TIGER SCHEME
Hello,
I have been working on this plane and it is almost done. I use Createx Auto Air chrome yellow which is a very close match for the Cub Yellow; flame yellow for lighter yellow and white. I had to rely on Mr. Fursman's plane since I could NOT locate any pictures of the real thing. It is very very unusual that it is not available despite exhaustive internet search for such a unique color scheme. After the black stripes are applied, I use the brush and "dap" it to get the "hairy" outline. It is easy but tedious and quite boring procedure. Tonite I will finish the top wing. The VH-ASC serial number will be printed and applied via decals. I power mine with AXI brushless motor swinging a 15X7 prop. Hope you enjoy this project. Maybe I should send a picture of my Moth and Bird Dog to Model Airplane News for publication? Let me know how you like it as feedbacks will give me incentives to finish it faster. We fly at Albuquerque Ballon Park on weekends so please come and join us. Dai Phan
