    Inconsistent color on monokote ruins my plane

    A Tower supervisor contacted me and will be refunding the full amount spend on monokote. I guess they want my continued business. I'm happy!

    Inconsistent color on monokote ruins my plane

    Yes, hindsight, I spend $30.25 for 12' when I could have got 25' for $60. Then again, I don't think I will be buying monokote anytime soon. I hear that the inexpensive stuff from HobbyKing is quite good. I'll give it a try.

    Inconsistent color on monokote ruins my plane

    Tower offered new roll of monokote, but they could not guarantee which one the new roll will match if any. I opted for money back.

    Inconsistent color on monokote ruins my plane

    Thx for kudos guys. I am anxious to hear what Tower says. I did not want to buy a $60 25' roll just to cover a plane and have 80% left over of the roll. I have never seen a batch number on rolls.

    Inconsistent color on monokote ruins my plane

    I sent Tower a letter asking for my money back on covering. How would you feel if you took your car in for a paint job, and the hood color different color than the trunk!. When doing the covering inside with incandescent light, you don't see the difference.

    Your Opinion-This is not a "Which radio is best" thread!!!

    My DX18's allowed me to set up my big planes with ease, and eliminate the powerboxes, eq6, smartfly equalizers and matchboxes. The servo balancing feature is a big plus and the DX18 does it with ease. Like Patroller, I too prefer POWERSAFE rx with dual heavy duty lead input using two LIFEPO4...
