stickers come off easy/but its a type of covering on the wings thats funtional/theres channels cut out of the foam of each wing you would have to use some type of covering to recover the wings.. most spray paints eat foam/hand brushing with a foam safe works or if you have a airbrush that works just use a faom safe paint/theres a chemical in areosols that eats foam. also ive seen a slo v fly.. there totally different type of plane/the typhoon isnt super fast put its probally a lot faster then a slo v. also even on lo rates the elevator is pretty sensitive and at full deflection on low rates will loop the plane in a tight circle/ive got around 6 flights on mine now it flys really stable and pulls out well when ya get close to ground during tricks.
