        Have you flown it after completion of the mods and paint? I’m a bit curious how it holds up with airframe flex in flight. I painstakingly covered one of my models in aluminum tape, taking pains to get it perfectly down with no wrinkles. After the maiden flight, the wing section came back with lots of wrinkles from the airframe flex.

          • Looks nice. Does it help with seeing it in the air? Are you going to add wing tip missiles of some sort?

            • Evan it helps alot in the air, due to the belly of the jet is white. I have a set of iris t missles on it just don't have a pic "I think".
