Nice scale I would love one takes the guess work out of were your CofG is . Did you buy directly or from Chief Aviation.

I believe from Chief.

+1 Well worth the money. I use it in my battery experimentation. I can set the battery position of completely different weight of battery, and have the CG dead on to where it was originally.

Finally got to do a little more work on the Dalton.

Just covered the left side of the rudder.

I applied the blue and orange with heat iron, then, I cut out the 1" strip of white Monokote, and then used Ammonia to float the strip.

Tomorrow, I will then hit it with low heat, and then do the right side of the rudder.

Once I finish this, I can move on to cover the stabs/elevators.

Last will be to cover the wings, then I can start installing the motor and the electronics.

I see you have the propeller turning the right direction too!

Seriously, I am jealous of the craftwork you pu into these planes.... Thanks for sharing.

Glad I could be even a small part of your success!

Cam I have been using vinyl for my stripes for some time now. It's so much easier to get them on without any air bubbles and you can get vinyl to match your covering very well.

Just a thought! Plane is looking great!

Thank you, any links to what vinyl stripes and where I can get them?
