Wow!! Excellent paint job! That looks phenomenal.

[T-CAT]

Anyone know what the white decal strip left over on the ordnance decal sheet is for??

[crxmanpat]

I'm trying to figure that out too. I used this pic from Motion's Spare Parts page for the decals:

Possibly the ALQ-131???

It would have been nice to have some ordnance markings, but Oh Well. I put on enough for now....I, Now present to You "Arctic Thunder":

That looks incredible! Very nice!

[T-CAT]

I noticed in the picture that they don't have the large yellow thick stripe installed on a pair of the ordnance also. The white stripe has me stumped. Ha-ha

[T-CAT]

Possibly the ALQ-131???

Hmm, possibly. I'll refer to some full scale pictures and see if I can zoom in enough to view it.

Absolutely stunning! You have set the bar high with this gorgeous paint job!

Came across this bag for a possibility. Soft padded divider - one bag, two wings - Team Wing Tote

I've got that bag...both wing panels will fit with the pylons on...no munitions.

Based on some full scale pics, it could go on the Maverick. I'm going to use this to dress up the AN/ALQ-131.

Those looks awesome Pat. I'll check regarding the Maverick. Thanks

I believe the wide yellow stripe go on the big green mk 82. The white one goes on the rocket launcher. Look on the outside of the box.

I guess my Artic Thunder will be number 2 but with a variation.....going with the sky blue/snow white as the dominant colors
20 hours of hand brush painting the acrylics so far. Should be all done with Callie's stuff on it by Fri. :Whew:
Notice my non OCD workshop LOL

[T-CAT]

Hmm, the white one on the rocket launcher, interesting. I'll check out the box when I get home. I couldn't tell in the pictures of the PNP jet online, or the stripe on the rocket launcher on the full scale pics. It's very possible. Thanks!

Where are you guys plugging in the UBEC. No place on board. Should plug in receiver?

Plug it into your data/bind of your receiver.

Is there any interest in sets of these decals? I could print a bunch and send them for like $5 total, basically just to cover printing and shipping costs.

A couple things I've noticed:

- It is possible that white strip decal belongs on the ALQ pod. In full scale pics, I see a metal brace that looks to latch, and that may be what is trying to be replicated by the white stripe. There is also only one decal, which must signify is goes on one of the pieces of ordnance that is solo and not doubled up.

- The Blue decal for the top of the tail on the Blacksnakes scheme looks to only have the outer decal needed to apply, as all the full scale pictures I've come across have only the outer tail tops with the marking, but not the inner parts of the tail. The decal sheet came with four, but only two are needed.
