Title: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Red on January 11, 2010, 07:45:54 AM Show 'em! Finished or not.
(http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh124/lownverted/Bear.jpg) I put the first flight on it Sunday, seems to fly pretty well! Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: patrick_ohalloran on January 14, 2010, 08:47:39 AM - Fin with carbon tow
- tailplane servo - motor mount - balsa tailplane Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Red on January 14, 2010, 10:13:36 AM Nice! Good idea on the tow, my vertical is pretty floppy.
Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Jon_Stychno on January 14, 2010, 10:17:36 AM I assume you are going with the "new" Rare Bear paint scheme? It looks like it would be very easy to accomplish :D
Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: patrick_ohalloran on January 14, 2010, 10:29:37 AM This one will use the scheme on the box, but I'll need to tweak it a little to avoid any confusion with the other RR in the group.
Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Jon_Stychno on January 14, 2010, 11:43:42 AM The US Navy sponsored RB one year, and RB had a big "Fly Navy " logo across the bottom of the wings, and I believe the rest of the paint scheme was like the one you have now. That could help.
Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Red on January 14, 2010, 08:36:52 PM Patrick,
Rare Bear has one of the most colored histories when it comes to schemes. Here are a few. Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Red on January 14, 2010, 08:37:50 PM more

Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: GB Ian on January 15, 2010, 09:44:34 AM My Spitfore is still in the box. The Bipe needs to fly first..bought G4 2650Mah this week with 45c, this should take care of business!
Thanks for getting it down safely Jon! Title: Re: Foamy Warbird Racers 2010 Post by: Jon_Stychno on January 15, 2010, 10:33:21 AM No Problemo 8)
