I doubt it , unless you want to pay a lot through the nose. I don't think AM , TOC or even SD models through the years have ever offered this. I think you used to be able to order a special one in all white , but that's something you would have to take up with rocky from SD models ( now TT models). Come to think of it , i think there may be only a couple ARF companies which would do this for you , but it'll cost you extra , or you'll have to order it waaaayyy in advance.

Buy anything you like, strip it and just do the covering yourself. You'll have a unique plane that will mean more to you.

Boy, if I had enough fingers to count how many times I have tried that. I simply can not cover or paint so that is ruled out from the begining. Wish I could, it would save me lots of money and I would not have to be an arf guy.

I'm not sure a 100% but i bet you Tom over at wildhare would if you asked him to. Also , i bet Kevin over at Dietrich would as well. The thing is , i don't know of any ARF companies that would advertise this option , it's a total pain in the ass. To be honest , it would probably be cheaper to buy an all white version , and have someone you know that is good at recovering do it for you. Covering isn't all that hard if you take your time at it. In fact my room mate gary , is one of the best covering guys i have seen. What your asking is to get a custom scheme , and with that word "custom" in the sentence , it becomes expensive.

Could you maybee help me out with the designing of the scheme??? I want a unique color combo of black, green and white. I dont know if you still do this for free. I will most likley substitute the colors on an original scheme.

I don't know about a custom ARF, but a few manufacturers might be willing to give you a RTC (ready to cover) plane and then you can find someone to cover it in the scheme you like. There are tons of people here on the Giants that might be willing to help you. I believe Aeroworks has RTC planes for both the Yak and Extra.
