Hey folks! Recently I took the leap into EDF planes, and I'm having a blast (pun intended).
While I do have a scratch built DTFB EDF in progress, my first two are store-bought foamies. First one was the Arrows Hobby 50mm Viper. Great little plane, horrible color scheme! Here's the stock colors:
And here's mine. You can also see I added a functional rudder, which is fun. This little guy does great tumbles and snap rolls!
After getting my feet wet and deciding I liked EDFs, I ordered an FMS 70mm Avanti. The maiden flight went well, but again... I did not like the stock color scheme:
Today I finished the repaint, and even installed some VGs on the outer wing panels.
Wing and stabilizer bottoms are black. I think my old man eyes should be able to see that better.
