Default Seagull 71" Reno Air Care YAK-11 - Perestroika - Build VLOG

I started a build vlog of Perestroika...here's episode one where I give a little history and go over the covering with a heat gun and iron:
(I get the year wrong of the last time Czech Mate raced...it was 2016, not 2006.)

Enjoy this relaxing montage of videos and photos of this beautiful Seagull Perestroika. You might think I went a bit overboard...but I had a BLAST creating this mini movie. I hope this conveys how I look at airplanes...and I hope that this shows off the beauty and style of this Reno racer.
