Canopy Question
Has anyone seen or come up with a simple or ingenious way to attach the canopy. Attaching the canopy, as indicated in the kit, is a pain. I'm sure most fly without it but I would like to figure something out. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Canopy removal to change battery packs between flights is a pain and maybe the only thing I didn't like about the Corona. Several of us happy Corona pilots have opted for the E-Voyager landing gear which places the batteries below the chassis and betwee the LG struts. You can buy the skid set a number of places on-line for around $12-14.00. It also adds to the kewl factor in the looks department. Once done, the canopy only comes off for maintenance or damage control (Heh, Heh).

Horizon Hobby or Roffe TV and Hobby can fix you up. It's not a bolt-on exactly. You need to fab a rear mount from the scrap ply left over from the crutch and then strap the LG on with tie wraps.
