Even the red white and blue plane Mike is using would mess me up on most days, I'm color blind and there is too much white and blue. I have one plane I did in white and blue and I have to keep it right clost to me and if I go high to do flat spins I really have to watch it like a hawk. This week I have been flying a 30% Extra and it's white and red, I had no problems until the white clouds rolled in and even that plane started to fade in on me. My best color is always yellow and then any dark contrasting colors on the bottom. I have another plane in orange, white and black, the lay out on the top has the white and it sticks out very well from the orange but the black stripes on the bottom blend in with the orange too much. It would be a good idea to look at planes in magazines or here on RCU and see what sticks out for you. Scale warbirds for me are very hard to see even on bright days.
