Rafale....sport
 

Here's some photos of a buddy's Rafale that I'll hopefully be test flying shortly. We had it out to the field today and had a few last minute items that needed to be tidy'd up before the initial flights, so we just got a few shots of it for now.

It's got an AMT Netherlands Olympus HP and will have a full array of lights for afterburner effect and wing lights, etc. Dana Reiman (in the photo with me) is the builder/finisher of the model and I dreamed up the paint scheme. The colors are metallic green, blue and standard white. A few markings/decals should finish it off just right.

I'll try to post some in flight shots once it's up and trimmed out.

Dude, that is awesome! Thanks for replying to that email last weekend, I was able to get what I needed through another source.

You're the man, and I'll hope to see you down in Florida in a couple of months.

All the best,

Sean

Absolutely stunning color scheme[sm=spinnyeyes.gif] You must be a creative dreamer for sure:D

I wonder how long it takes before this scheme appears on one of the Chineese ARF Rafale's with those excellent 3-view pics availiable;)

Hey Staale, lol, you're right about the color scheme, ahh, we'll see, doubtful it'd be duplicated, but who knows.

Got a few things to work out still but hope to fly this weekend. Test ran the motor today, whoa baby, tons of power, a bit much, but it's got such a cool sound! ;)

Here's a shot of the engine bay, the Olympus HP is covered up here.
