Hello,

I have just applied all the decals on the vertical stabilizers. They do look great. I can recommend to use decal softener for a great looking finish.


Does anyone know, where the camouflage decal is going? In my attached screenshot it is marked orange.

I cannot see it from Alpha's pictures. Possibly somebody can upload a picture of his MIG-29 with the decal applied?

Thanks for the hints.

Apply the included waterslide Tiger decal, port and starboard, to depict this livery:





Here are the decals themselves, out of the box:






And showing the Tiger decal's placement (self-explanatory... just apply it directly over the existing camo decal on the vertical stab)

Thanks LB, but "crazy smart"? Many folks use that first word to describe me, but almost no one, including my CO, ever use the second word. 🤯

Hello dear airplane pilots !
I would like to have your opinions (also look at the pictures), because I am preparing my MIG for its first flight in a few days !

• To have my MIG balanced on the manufacturer's CG, I must use the second compartment at the very front of the plane. The one in the middle gives me a rear CG. For information I use spektrum 6S - 5000mah - 50C - 690g. I installed the blue box and the receiver under the rear battery plate. What do you think ?
• Also what do you think of the rates proposed in the manual ?

waiting your answers,
Thanks 😁

Definately use forward bay for battery! Learned the hard way, test flight day before yesterday! It did not turn out well! Replacement parts on the way!

Did you use the middle compartment ?
