ORIGINAL: ChiefK
I've heard of the ''...looks like a duck'' rule, but now it would look like an Atlas duck, not a Deception duck. As to Monokote, it may or may not be what it once was ( I haven't used it in many years ), but I did recently use Coverite. It went on very nicely, doesn't seem to wrinkle, and takes paint well for color trim.

Heresy, Heresy. Comparing a Deception and an Atlas to a duck.

I like the 2nd as much as the first, but I have to agree with Chiefk the second is not a Deception. The different canopy darn near makes it a new airplane. Why not give the second a new name?
I have to admit that these two planes, Deception and Atlas, were the reason I got back into RC two years ago. Have an Atlas kit waiting to be built. Have the plans for the Deception but no kit. Any chance of getting a copy of your plans and laser cut files?
