Wow! I love the knowledge that gets shared here.

I will check out the website. I have spoken to a number of people who flew pattern back in the day. Most of them don't remember much, but they all said the thought that take off and landing were precision maneuvers.

Greg G To answer your question - the plane is all paint. When I purchased the plane the wing/stab were white with black and red stripes. Ailerons operate on a single servo, and the bell cranks and rods were binding some. I had to cut into the underside of the wing to make necessary repairs. I loved the burgundy color of the fiberglass fuse, and thought the tan color would make a nice contrast. I stripped the wing down to bare wood, primed and painted, followed by clear coat.

Rainedave - if you could post the diagram that would be great!


Thanks for all of the info!
