Hey guys, I could use your opinions. I really felt at the time the added graphics were quite sufficient and I don't know if I am just getting use to it or what but it just look's like something is missing. What do you guy's say, add a few more, leave as is and if I add more where should they go?

It needs some big Team EPG Skullys on there!
Btw, beautiful field.:big_yes:


Beautiful aircraft!! Think you could use something on the tail. A set of pawnshopmike’s skulls would do the trick, along with GSN logos.

Another day out with the AW and it was a great trip this time. The 3W ran like it should and it flew great with only a little up trim and right trim. A fellow member did shoot a video of the first flight but unfortunately all that is visible is the take off. Once I started the first turn he lost it and never got it back but there is sound, lol..
I do believe it is a keeper, it flies light and tracks straight. I did a couple loops, knife edge's, inverted passes and it did not want to veer off anymore than normal. Minimal coupling would eliminate the wandering but I prefer to do it the old fashioned way.
So I am very happy with it and look forward to many years of enjoyment with it.

After getting several flights on the bird it needed a good inspection so I spent this evening going through everything. Started on the exterior and found that there was a piece of covering pulling loose from the bottom abutting the cowl. No big deal, brushed a little Sigs on it and ironed it back down and while at it might as well go over every seam, joint, and end lap. All bolts, fasteners, couplings, tape, and straps were secure so I moved on to electronics. The batteries took just short of 1600mah combined to recharge, not bad for about 32 minutes of airtime. Having two 3400mah batteries and only timing for 60% drain that gives me just under 2 hours of flight before even considering recharging. Checked all the wiring to ensure there was no chaffing to tend to, hooked the meter in line and cycled the servos, all was great. I also gave the engine compartment a good looking over, there was no sign of exhaust leakage or spitting from the carb.
I also went ahead and ordered some more vinyl from B&E, but going to wait on Mike for the main fin/rudder one.
