The only real helicopter is the CH-47 Chinook. The rest are just sling loads!

Yeah, just move them away from the giveaway grass and paint some 1/10 scale runway markings, maybe some red remove before flying flags and an ammo/ordinance loading cart. O.K. maybe the ammo cart was over the top.:Cool:Must be a residual from my childhood plastic modeling days setting up a scene. Brad

I bought my 'Pacific SIlver' P38 last summer and just last week got it out to assemble…(actually was taking pilot training ) and was delayed in getting her ready to fly. The only 'squawks' I noted was a parts/ screw count shortage for some VERY important components; re: no main wing screws and only 10 instead of 12 prop blade mount screws. No way in hades to fly her without those. Too late to ask Motion for some help…so…I went to just order a screw kit…and ended up spending over $600.00 on screws batts. & and "A BRAND NEW PLANE!" LOL…The "Captain and Pilot Ryan" are the best salesmen in the entire "Wide, Wide WORLD of SPORTS"!…expertly demonstrating "the thrill of victory"…but never "the agony of defeat". …challenge to all my fellow gray-hairs out there…who can ID the show from my quotes….I used to park my bicycle and come in the house every Saturday afternoon to watch that show…and it took a heck of a show to get me home early on a Saturday afternoon. I am really impressed with the look and modernization of this forum and Motion RC overall! Keep up the great work gents! KUDOs to all you super detail RC guys…your planes look like the real thing! I am too prone to ding one one up to put so much work into one other than a dabb of paint or a cool decal, etc. You guys ROCK…and are dang-brave too!….shocktrooper OUT!

Okay, I have a request that I think would work for a lot of Motion's airplanes. I would like to see a roll of colored tape, the same tape that is used on the bottom of the wing to cover all the various wiring channels, available as a spare part. A roll of the tape the same color as the bottom of the wing would be great for covering up servos and wiring channels that didn't get covered by the factory. Having the exact, matching colored tape would be easier than me running around town trying to find tape that matches the bottom wing color.
Please?
