Default New r50 canopy

It's been too cold to paint it but I got it mounted. This one screws on. It includes the four mounting posts. Two go in the same spot and the other two get epoxied into the holes on the front of the servo tray. No more skid clip. I'm not going to lie it's a more work to get it on and off. Makes the heli look so skinny.

PS hope you like the veiw from my front yard. Nothing like adding a cemetery to brighten up a winter day

You know I thought the new canopy looked bad, but from those views it looks very good. I am really tired of the whole clip deal and feel kinda nervous flying fast backwards after hearing about the whole canopy clip issue.

Anywhere I can buy this canopy (that has it in stock)? Or where did you purchase yours from?
