Quattr0,
Pull the ballast out of it and it'll almost plane! Runs like it should, looks as close to scale as far as I know (and just enough more to keep the duck's eyes open

).
The paint. One of those, "Pay attention, stupid!", things. Grabbed the wrong can of yellow paint, not 'Fusion' as I thought it was. You could see the 'crinkle' rising the further you painted. You haven't lived until you've had paint crinkle/craze/whatever it's called. The odd part is that in some spots it may take up to a day to show up. Now that's really 'fun'! (Probably from some duck 'poop' from the pond?)
