Great Planes Super Skybolt ARF Covering Job. Use this One
Please rate the covering job on your new Skybolt ARF as received and the difficulty level and time to remove them in order to start construction. Just trying to get a feel for the quality I should have expected from my Kit. Thanks for your participation. Please select one button on wrinkles and one on quality.

SOUNDS LIKE YOU WEREN'T TOO HAPPY WITH THE QUALITY OF YOUR NEW SUPER SKYBOLT ARF.
WHEN I RECEIVED MINE IT WAS BETTER THAN AVERAGE QUALITY FROM WHAT I'VE COME TO
EXPECT FROM THE CHINESE ARF KITS. ASSEMBLY TIME WAS LONGER THAN THE 10-12 HOURS THAT IS
ADVERTISED. HOWEVER, AFTER COMPLETING ASSEMBLY, I WAS QUITE PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS.
HAVEN'T FLOWN IT YET BUT I THINK MY O.S. 91FX WILL PULL IT AROUND QUITE WELL.
TEST FLIGHT TO FOLLOW SHORTLY. I'M INTERESTED IN MORE FLIGHT REPORTS FROM ALL YOU NEW SUPER SKYBOLT OWNERS.

RE: Great Planes Super Skybolt ARF Covering Job. Use this One
Based upon what I have read, im thinking I got a bum kit. I was just trying to get feel for what everyone else's kits were like. Great Planes is a great company with excellent customer service, so Im going to take em up on their offer to swap it out. It is an Awesome plane, and from the looks of everyones plane (that is finished) the quality is two thumbs up. Thanks again.

As far as ARFs go this is one great covering job. Just a few jagged edges around the wing tips and a few wrinkles that I took out with a iron with sock on it. I can do a better covering job but don't have the time so this is about as good as it gets for me anymore. Thumbs up from me on this one. The added bonus is that it flies great also.
