Default RE: Sebart Wind 110


ORIGINAL: Velco



When I look at the 2 color variants offered for Wind 110, in fact I would like to have a mix of the 2; I would prefer to have the red version with the wing bottom from the blue version, which actually is red , and this exact scheme is now offered on the Wind S Pro.</p>

I am (still) flying (too) many different planes and have noticed that when changing from a model to a model the eye takes its time to adapt to a new color scheme. So in my ideal world the practice plane (Wind 110) should have the same color scheme as the plane being used for competitions (Wind S Pro).</p>

Are there any problems with the visibility of the blue on the bottom? Has anyone considered recovering it in red?</p>
My thoughts exactly, and Sebastiano also came to this conclusion himself, since the 2m WindS pro has this scheme (red topside, red bottomside).

Adding darblue will accomplish nothing.

The secret to visibility is not in the color, but in the contrast of them. The human eye cannot see colors very good over large distances in the sky. Every color will fade to a light gray or dark gray.

Any kind of blue you'll take, will fade to dark gray. So if you want to add more contrast, you might want to add a WHITE striping.
