The photo lightened up the colors. I used royal blue and true red Monocote. Both are a lot darker.

The flight test went very well. Some trim, cg and throw issues, nothing serious. I'll start real testing later this week. The ST61BH and a 12/6 prop are, if anything, too much power.
The short fuselage looks really funny after flying my Deceptions for so long.

It lands like a dream with that big wing and low wing loading.
