Hey @Bipeguy03,

So, when are you going to strip your Pitts and give it a "Proton" paint job ? ? ? ? ? . . . . . . .

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

If it takes 400+ hours to paint the full scale, it would only take 35% of that.

Isn't that the way the math works?

140 hours at our local automotive labor and paint and material rate, that would pay $12,600. I'll take that job!

After seeing how complex that proton scheme is in person... Good freaking luck to anyone that wants that... There is so much small detail not shown in any picture!! Would be a cool project if you have more time than you know what to do with... I would even donate my beast for someone to attempt on

 

[Bipeguy03]

If anyone wants to pay for it, I'll give it a go! Always looking for a new Monokote challenge

Mine is only a couple of years old, so it will have to stay red and white for awhile

Hi guys can you give some advice. Have a Midwest Super Stinker 1/4 scale kit in a box. Brand new never open the box. Not interested in the plane any more really getting into 3D flying. What would it be worth and would anybody be interested.

I've seen them go for anything from $200 to clear up to $600, all depends on if you find a guy that really wants one. I wanted one for the longest time, before I gave up and bought to Hostetler plan (same airplane but 100cc sized).

If you price it around the $300 range you should be able to sell it pretty quick.
