got home from work and couldn't wait to get this beauty out of the box and see what she looks like together! Awesome job MRC. So far ive checked the fan mounts are glued in. Screws were tight. esc in proper place. I will go through the whole thing over the next few days and make sure she's ready for her maiden the weekend!

Here she is...Finally! I get to partake in the party!
I have literally clamored for this model since I was flying the FMS "Flying Brick" version 10 years ago or so. Even bone stock before weathering she is just gorgeous. Taxi test complete. Just need to dial in CG, rates and throws and she's ready to maiden this week!

As for dark colors, the darker they are the more they're made to sit in the shade.
Gatoring just plain (plane) sucks, good idea to have a cover for them if there isn't any shade, the P-40 actually came with one, but a crib size mattress cover would be ideal, the elastic on the corners helps to keep it on.
