| The blue isn't mine either. My pictures are black, and red and white. I painted the black with 21st Century Coverite paint. It is fuelproof, but I would not reccomend it. It is designed to paint balsa, and is largely dependant on a surface to soak into. It took many many coats to get coverage. As I recall that hard drive was just to illustrate the size of the fuse by showing something a common size. There is plenty of room within the fuse, but a few key points seemed to interfere all the time. There isn't much room for a muffler, and the tail boom is hard to get lined up without hitting the pitch lever on a Non CCPM ship.
The fuel didn't seem to hurt the plastic fuse. I didn't fly it much though. I can't say long term. It was too much of a dog. I sold it to someone who wanted to play with it, and moved on.
Thanks, John Cadwell |
