Ziroli Panther
Does anyone know if there is a fiberglass fuselage available for the Ziroli Panther? Seems like I saw one once but I may have been dreaming .

RE: Ziroli Panther
I did a build thread on one:
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_96..._1/key_/tm.htm
I found two major issues with the glass fuse I have. Part of the verticle stab is built up and the other part is molded into the fuse. They don't join very well and a hump is created. I used filler to fix this. Others have cut the glass and reshaped it to fit. I do call this out in the build thread. The other issue is the fuse was moulded with a bannana shape to it. It isn't that bad but it is a little noticable if your looking striaght down at the top of the fuse. This doesn't effect the way it flies.
