Looks like the same shed I have in Cali. except I finished the inside of mine due to winter cold and summer heat. Because it was a lab when I built it I had a electrical outlet about every 10 inches or so. Harbor Freight sells a pretty good HVLP gun and when they are on sale they cost about 10 or 15 bucks. Can't ever go wrong with Klass kote paint other then the price but it's bullet proof!! Fuel doesn't go bad with age, just keep it out of the direct sun if it's in clear jugs. electric is just cleaner and easier to set up plus the motors don't require a tune up. Electric just costs a bunch then you need extra batteries or you will be waiting a long time between flights. Can't help you with the weather there. I moved when I was 11 and the webs between my feet didn't dry up and go away until I was 13.
