    For those interested in the Arctic Camo, we received a VERY small quantity today. They should be available for sale in the next few hours, sign up for back in stock notify as always. If you miss out on the few we have for sale today, we will most likely make them available for pre-order in the next one to two weeks.

    Yes there will be a short pre-order...We want to make sure the container is on the water before we add the pre-order so it's not a wait that's too long.

    I used flat white, flat black and flat grey. Any hardware selling enamel rattle can brand will work. When I was all done I hit it with mini wax poly satin.

    Looked at Callie's offerings . Is this plane 1/15th scale? Looked like she has two stock versions
    Rattle can is an easy option. She's actually 1/12th scale.

    Like a squirrel, I've been gathering all the components needed for this plane. So today I finally ordered the Arf+ . Could not hold out for an Artic Camo livery. I'd be waiting for the cows to come home. In normal MRC fashion, the plane will probably arrive in a couple of days . If all goes according to Hoyle, I'll maiden this weekend along with my new twin 80mmn A-10. Looking forward to having a speed wagon like the F5

    Thanks!!

    watching your video brings back memories....I lived in Portland for 10 years and that was how we typically flew....off a street by a field

    of course ...with the beautiful green scenery

    Thanks! Oh yes, the only thing that flies even more like it's on rails is the Avanti S. But both are outstanding models. So crisp, clean and smooth to fly. I would swear both have built-in gyros. :)

    That looks sweet dusmmdb...
    Took mine out but the landing suffered terribly from distraction thanks to some folks that rolled up the runway and starting talking to me while I was trying to land. :Angry:

    I love the blue camo look...... I went with the newer splinter type, but I like the colors on the original better

    I love it. Similar to how I did the blue tan camo Mig-21. Great idea.
