This baby has a bigger rudder, about 1 1/2 inches, has a pull pull system to keep the bigger rudder steady. Has a fiberglass canopy painted with checker flag ripping inside a purple paint. It has a .46FX engine with a 11x4 prop, the cover was all made with monokote... The landing gear is taller that the standard and is made of kevlar. The motor mount is the DUBRO aluminum with anti vibration system, really nice.

EXCELLENT covering job! It came out really nice!
What does the bottom look like?
And can you give a brief description on how you covered it? Is it all hand-cut? Did you work from templates etc....
I am also very jealous of the Coca-Cola plane!

I wish I could take the credit for covering both these plane but I can't. The guy who did it is an artist, he used only monokote on both planes and he work only with a xacto knife. Acording to him he goes to a one of those print shops where he ask fo the images to be inlarged and using those bigger images as guide he starts cutting the pieces of monokote. The cocacola plane has tons of little details that are amizing.
The bottom has those same colors where the front of the wing is yellow and the bottom purple and is divided in the middle by a line that goes like this /\/\/\ /\/\/\ ... I hope I explanied myself alright.
