I bought a kind of beat up Carl Goldberg Pitts Monster M-12 (the big 1/4 scale) (the blue and yellow version). The plane itself had the landing gear fall off and other stuff like that, but I wanted to fix it up since it just need some new monokote in key places. Anyways, great planes bought out Carl Goldberg. Unfortunately no one at great planes can tell me what colors of monokote (or ultracote) or whatever CG used to use on this plane. I want something that matches and don't want to have to completely recover the entire plane since most of the plane is OK. I was told that the plane might be covered in oracote, but I can't seem to find anyone who sells it. Can anyone help me figure out what the proper covering is? Thank you David |

I looked that up online and oracover was changed to ultracote. So if your manual says "ultracote" then our manuals are different.... | ||||||||||||||||||

I assume they are: Bright Yellow, ultracote 872 http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=HANU872 and Sky blue, ultracote 875 http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=HANU875 Can someone verify this? | ||||||||||||||||||

I'll have to look at my manual but I purchased matching covering back in the day. Will probably take me a few days to dig through the stuff and get you an answer. Remind me if you don't hear back from me!

you need Ultracote bright yellow #872 and Ultracote Midnight Blue #885 http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...#quickOverview http://www.horizonhobby.com/Products...ProdID=HANU885 Atleast I'm 99% for sure these numbers are right. My rolls no longer have any numbers / markings on them for me to look at.
