    I had a bad landing today and need some repainting.

    I found the elapor colors of Multiplex, but I'm not sure to buy the grey or silver metallic.

    What do you think?​

        Grey is easier to adjust with white or black and easier to get a flat finish than silver

              Got digital gray December 2021 and added thrust vector, love it. Was going to get B 1 but overpriced for issues and for same price decided on the new Red Star version. Was surprised it had reverse thrust ( released on 7-15-23 . She really stands out. The missiles were bland and didn't contribute to paint scheme so I added a touch! Using Spectrum 8 channel with mix and yes, everything works. Used same setup for both freewing F-14' s . White struts

                    I really like it. It does need a semigloss over spray as the paint is matte and the decals have a gloss.

                      Your right on semi gloss, found out real quick that 4 coats of gloss on my Blue Angel was BAD ! Gator'd up in 45 seconds in sun .😬

                        I'm not sure what's more impressive... the way I deeply messed up, or the way I magnificently dealt with it right next...

                          Wow! Nice save. So many chances that could have went perfectly good or perfectly bad.

                            That's the beauty of tailerons + large throws + vectored thrust. :)

                              I gotta vote for the magnificent save. Anybody can mess up, but that save was capable by almost no one, except of course for you. 🤔

                                Thanks Hugh!
                                That's the power of flying with full throws and large expo values... yes, the plane is a bit more twitchy but it can save your a$$ when you done messed up big time!

                                        If you have a 3D printer, there are STL files available on the internet.

                                          Morning Gurus...
                                          Does anyone have any suggestions as to how i should wire the VT nozzles on the Mig 29? I have an 8ch rx in it now, but i want to put the nozzles complete on their own channels so i can turn the on and off so i've got a 10ch rx coming today... (probably going to put wheel brakes on it too).

                                          Please help - words, wiring diagrams, etc would be helpful. Thanks in advance!
