Default Uproar I need help

Hi Has anyone ever built a towers uproar 60? And thought about putting a canopy on it? Well if anyone ever did this, could you please give me some suggestions on what to do to add one too this plane. I looked in replaceable parts in the tower website and I,m confused with trying to make a choice . Please help. thanx

I built the UR 60 last winter-you have to move the hatch that is on top to bottom of the fuse-no big deal. I ordered a GP generic canopy from Tower - I believe it is 12-13 inches long-if I recall correctly there are 2-3 sizes of their generic canopy-this one is the largest-it fits just right. Dimensions are given on Tower site. Great flying plane-you will enjoy the experience-mine is powered with a ST G90. If you can't find the canopy at Tower-PM me and I will send you the item #.

I did that exact thing. It was a great flyer.

I think the canopy gives them a little more stability and looks

Canopy is a must have! Adding a canopy just adds so much to the plane. It`s the topping of the icecream[8D]
