Default RE: Great Planes RV-4 .60-.90 ARF

hey guys, got a question. This may have been already covered but just don't feel like going all the way through the thread! Has anyone had a problem with the covering on this plane?

I got one last october as somthing to tinker with over the winter. I ran the engine for the first time and the black stripe on the fuse seperated and came off![:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@] upon further investigation I've discoverd that the RV is covered with Econokote or towerkote, or at least somekind of cheap knock off, because the color does'nt match planes that I know are covered with real monokote becuase I did it![:@][:@][:@]

I am going to contact GP as soon as possable, but if they all are like this I'm going to want my 280 bucks back not another plane!

Here are the pics I took,
