Good to hear from you again how is the viper coming. I shouldn't talk I have done nothing. But will finish it this winter.

I've got the covering done. It's ready for paint. I'm hoping to get to that in the next few weeks. Not sure if that will happen or not. After the paint is done, it's ready to get stuffed with all the goodies that make it fly.

That looks realy good. When you paint the cowl how are you going to match the paint to the covering, let me how you did it please.
If you can take a picture of the bottom of the cowl like to see how you did the cut outs.

I got all my paint from Wings West RC. They have just about any color for monocote or ultracote. They also have primers and clears.

Here is a video about their paint.

On the cowl I'm going to also cut out on each corner beside the main cutout in the back for those vents from Taildragger RC.

Thanks for that, looked at the site. Will be sending them an email with a bunch of questions and some pricing. The thing that I needed some info on Ultracoat but nothing on the site.

After some repairs being completed. Awesome flying conditions. Did a few flights on my extra today. Found I need far more expo and far less throws.

I've never used Kevin's product, but I can tell you he is a very sharp guy and a awesome painter.

A few pictures of his Deception.
