Default Which color scheme? 30% Pilot-RC Yak54

Doesn't it just suck! I get the go ahead from my wifey to order a new toy and I can't decide which scheme! I think I like the Russian Thunder scheme.... but that Blue Flame looks BADASS too! I guess I'm concerned about the Blue Flame being difficult to see at times.... Had a friend with a blue Sukhoi and at times that plane was a pain in the ass to see against a blue sky.

What scheme should I get fellow FG freaks!

Get a Custom Scheme, They can do anything. Did a great job on my 37.5% custom scheme.

Yeah,,,, I thought about that too. But, I can get it cheaper right now if I go through TBM. $599 + $89 shipping for the carbon fiber version.

Looks like the Russian Thunder scheme is winning right now. This is like deciding between blonds, brunettes and red heads. lol

I was having the same problem. I liked the blue flame and the blue and orange sport. I finally decide to go with the blue and orange and have Tony do the blue checker on the wing bottoms like the blue flame. Super cool you can do that to and ARF model. Price is right with the new combo deal He has going on right now.

Yup that combo deal is pretty good too... This will be my second 50cc size plane and I'm gonna have to piece it together little by little. Thought about getting the motor first... but then I saw these birds and I can't resist getting the airframe first! Atleast this way I'll have a back-up airframe incase my wh Edge bites the dust... lol

Well I couldn't wait for the poll to end. For the most part the Russian Thunder was winning the poll.... Called TBM and as fate would have it.... Russian Thunder is the only scheme in stock right now. It was ment to be! So I pulled the trigger and she's on the way!
