Nice! Mikey like!Picked up a new to me 74 Edge...
After flying my Goblin again I decided even after adding the green, pearl yellow and silver to the canopy in was still pretty hard to see. So, I painted the boom and lower section of the canopy bright yellow as well as changed the silver to yellow. I can't say I'm in love with the scheme, but It should be more visible. Now I need to have @Decal Dennis make me some decals for the tail boom.
I liked the original white scheme the best, but the visibility sucked. Here are some pictures of the changes.

Thanks Mike!Beautiful job Doug. I bet you can see that baby now!
Picked up a new to me 74 Edge...
Thanks Mike!
The shape of the Goblin canopy isn't the greatest for reflecting light unless it's upside down. The area at the top that sticks out to cover the servos shadows the rest of it when your right side up. I guess the answer is just to fly upside down all the time.
My preference has moved to 70cc and larger too but I needed a quick one hand grab plane for quick after work flight at home. This will hang ready to go in the garage so I can walk out and get my fix quick.The 30/35 cc stuff has played hell with me so "bigger is better" but your Edge looks nice. Hope you do well with it.
Thanks!And Helicopters! I would need an ambulance as part of my safety gear.lol
Your chopper looks awesome.

Tanks fit a 104 slick like a glove, I bought this plane used or prebuilt lol it had maybe 6 or 7 flights on it, I had to change a lot on it and reorganize wires put short the plane was thrown together, so not only am I adding smoke now but I have had to pull the DLE111 and fuel prof the firewall and motor box just one more thing i do on a build that I feel needs to be done on them all but couldn't be skipped when adding the nasty side effects of "smoke on" Oh and I wana thank @stangflyer again lol I have tried to add feed back on the sale but I can't figure that one out but buying from this guy was the easiest part of the project.
