Looks great. Is that the stock tail gear or an RC blimp tail gear?

That tail gear assembly comes with the plane. I don't believe it is RC Blimp but it is similar in style. It didn't weigh a whole lot so I used it.

You can tell the prototype by the cowl screws, production planes do not have them.

That was some quick shippiong, and the box was perfect. Here is what you get in the pro model, and it looks even better in person. I love the blue, its almost metalic, its soo coool dude.

Dude now we really need to fly together sometime. We have a bunch of the same planes in just different color schemes. Yeah the shipping was really fast on mine. I think I got the notice like Thurs or Friday and by Monday I picked it up from the airport.

Just gotta love the way the hinges are done on this kit. I mean seriously finaly getting away from the old school way of doing things and moving into the future much like full scale planes.
