I used standard blue painters tape, but frog tape is better at not peeling off the existing tape (just didn't have any at the time). With the blue tape, I only lightly press on the edge of the tape near the paint side, then I sneak a piece of paper between the rest of the tape and the side of the aircraft I don't want any accidental spray or bleed. Regardless the tape you use, just don't press it hard on the model, and when removing the tape, don't pull it off like a band-aid, work it slowly and no paint should pull off
I've been steering guys at the club towards this plane, they buy the red tail volantix rtf and some were saying how they missed the parkzone p51 I say you know for 100 bucks you can get the flightline one and it will fly better
Lost my local air field to development, so I'm looking for belly-landers. This bird is close to the Parkzone "Gunfighter", of which I had several. No parts available is a big turn off. Also not reading good things about the electronics, so I will probably add my own. Rudder isn't necessary, but easy to modify.
Not sure what you mean about the electronics. She rips on her stock setup but based on it's price and flying characteristics it is a popular model so parts move in and out fast but will always be restocked. Just right now shipping is crazy with Covid and the Holidays. More parts are always on the way
Did you purchase a seperate receiver? and a battery? The model doesn't come with those as it is PNP (plug and play) and not RTF (ready to fly). PNP assumes you have a transmitter already and a receiver and battery
Question about the motor. Mine is set up to brake when throttle is at zero and I would like to get rid of that. I’m guessing it is set that way for prop strikes? Does anyone know if this is possible?
No primer. Rustoleum 2x is my go to spray and never had a problem. I always stay about 1 to 1.5 foot back because maybe the propellant could eat the foam, but I have done so many like that and never had an issue
Same one in the video. The only way spray paint will eat foam is if you hold it very, very close (which you wouldn't do). The accelerant could get it that way, but not normal 12-18 inches away spraying
there is already a slot cut into the tray for a rudder servo and a tube built into the foam for the control rod. Just need a servo, rod, horn and exacto knife and you have a rudder.
Seen that in the follow up grate idea per adding it to the frame like that wish it came with the corresponding parts in the box and I still hope you make a kit/ how to video like your other installation videos! There a grate help to the community! Thanks for the response and I really do hope to see a Global Hawk EDF...
