    Our Bill at my RC Club finally had his maiden flight of his Freewing Al37 in the American Airlines scheme (Custom Paint and Calli Graphics).

    We had a few assisting him and the model flew without the benefit of any Gyro or assist from the Stock Electronics as we visited all four (4) Youtube Videos while we were at the RC Club field and could NOT get his Gyro to work so, we flew it without and it performed very well.

    However, the Instructor Pilot at the third (3rd) flight reported some very unnerving (unexpected) turns from the model (unsolicited) and he quickly landed without any further issues, thankfully.

    The plan going forward is Bill will remove all STOCK Electronic Gear from his Jet and place his well known brand.

    Thanks for the advice. Strange,but I didn't realize that they had a bad batch of "cream" colored planes. When mine came in,I was so excited to get it, that I just figured that all of them were "off-white".
    and,I had already been thinking that I was going to have a problem painting them due to the strange base color.
    Time to re-think my painting idea

    Might want to check out #2078 for many tips prior to the maiden learned from lots of flights.

    i cant start with a cream base and is not right that i need to paint all
    Bottom line , your unhappy they made it right , end of story. Time to move on.
    Endless complaining here did nothing to solve your issue. Motion solved it.

    I'm done with this ridiculous debate. It's whatever you define it to be and you'll never see it as anything different. This has been one of the dumber discussions we've had here. Unsubscribing for a while (maybe permanently) before we get into how black is black and dark grey is another totally different color.

    check message from motion
    really really bad!!!

    I apologize that you received a cream colored AL37. We're aware that we received a defective batch of off-white-colored planes from Freewing and we thought this issue was behind us since all of them should've been sorted in the warehouse from correctly colored white planes. The disclosure would've been posted on the product page if they were still known to be off white. I am sorry that we didn't have the disclosure in place at the time of your purchase and I will be able to offer you 50 Euros in compensation for the defective paint or I can get a return label sent to your email. Again, we're sorry for any inconvenience this has caused and thank you in advance for your understanding.

    Everybody, I'm sure, has checked your picture. That's the way it comes. Go to a paint store and check out all the paint cards and see just how many there are that are all called "white". In many circles, "cream" is still considered "white". If you send it back, don't get another one since if you get another one, it'll look just like the one you have. You may as well take off the base paint as it's not stuck on very well anyway and paint it to whatever "white" you want.
