Well then maybe, just maybe, we should join forces and produce something on that topic. I would love to some day join you guys in that part of the country and do a story on your "band of brothers", which includes your techniques on mods and painting!
In the meantime, whatever you can come up with on showing your skills would be much helpful. I'm wanting to do a scheme on my "still bare naked" A-10. Mine is pretty simple, but I've never painted before and certainly don't want to screw it too badly. :Scared:
Ryan and Mike for sure too but you got to meet them at Hawk's event.;)Warbird Charlie

Well had her maiden flight and what a cracking aircraft and flys on rails. Grass takeoff wasn’t an issue and was pretty scale . I think the upgraded retracts helped a lot .
Used a 4000mah 60C Lipo and got 4 mins flight time ( with 1min Extra go come down and land .
She slows down really well.
big smiles all round at my club this morning!! 10 grown men all starring at me arrrr not off putting at all haha .
well recommended aircraft

was setting up the throws on my hawk and the lights went out...oh oooo... the 8 inch extention on the ztw esc became unsoldered...back to the local hobby shop and get that fixed... then sense I am using a fms 70mm 4s set up I checked the CG with a 4s 4000 battery...all the way forward and a extra oz at the front of the cockpit and she balanced at the 6 . something point...if the weather ever gets better here ill give it a maiden. really liking how easy this one went together...
well extention resoldered and checked over and replaced in hawk very easy to work on even in the wing compartment u don't have to take all the wires off the rx etc

Cooling electronics
"Cheater hole" to help the EDF get intake air.
without even seeing it I'll bet its to help the EDF get enough intake air to give enough thrust for takeoff.FF gliders and rubber power since 1966, CL 1970-1990, RC since 1975.
current planes from 1/2 oz to 22 lbs

the grass was cut about a week ago! I did use most the patch to take off ! So it does need doing again, but yeah no issues on a grass runway
