Very nice job :)
Do you have a ball park figure $$$ for a T-Rex 450

I have a T-rex on ebay right now. Do a search for "Custom Canopy" and you will see what I currently have available. At this time it's going for about $90. A link to the T-rex is below. I am doing 3 or 4 more of them in the next week or so.

Which Raptor bodies are you using (if you don't mind)? I got a fiberglass one from HeliProz and the thing is paper thin. I know it needs to light but .....I cracked the gelcoat just carefully putting it on the frame!! I sure don't want to do the same after a nice paint job has been applied.

Thanks,
Harold.

I use the Thunder Tiger FRP 3D ones (for raptors) and I use the Align ones for trex's. I haven't had any problems with them whatsoever. Some ARE thinner than others, though. Either way, I have found that once they are painted they are stronger. I don't know why that is.

Where do you get the Raptor's? I am referring to the Titan canopy with the vent hole on each side. I bought the Mavrikk one from HeliProz. The only one from Raptor I could find is the shorter one without the hole.

Thanks,
Harold.

Mnormington, where are you from? I just seen this body are my LHS. Just outside of chicago. If this is the body I'm thinkingof the paint is KILLER! I haven't seen sweeter flames on anything other then a custom rod. KILLER paint work!
