My Sonic rex, this was my first attempt at grahics for the canopy and I though sonic would be appropriate, fast, small blue, rolls, flips, etc...
Left side is best so far, right side I tried out markers and they did not work, I gotta learn some technique for paints or paint markers real soooooon. https://www.helifreak.com/album_pic.php?pic_id=9995 |

Hehe - Thanks Hyde - my 1st attempt at masking and spraying. (I'm guessing you have a decent SLR - and of course nice natural light. I have had a CAnon 30D for a few months now. Superb bit of kit - lots to learn!)

Here's an in-flight pic.
My girls picked the color schemes and drew pictures and stuff on the canopy. They think the Trex is very cool!!! |

Hey Dodgey how the heck do you get those blades to track, I have a set and they are almost stirring paint, I have tried a million times to track them, but can never get it better than 10mm.

if you find turning the link that goes straight to the blade holder makes too much of a difference, then turn the link that goes from he same mixing arm down to the swash instead (inthe opposite direction you turn the upper link) - the longer link makes finer adjustments (I think - at least that's worked for me)
a 10mm difference is a lot though, and half a turn on the top link (maybe 1 turn) should easily bring it in within a mil or two. |

Hmm, will try again, I can get my CF Hyperions and woodies to within a mm,if not perfect, but these I am having no luck with. Will give it one more go. Thanks.

Hey DDog, just looked again at your post with those 'Carnivore Canopies' , I noticed that the military copter version has some neat skids to match the 'used and abused' military hardware theme, nice attention to detail I thought.
Hey Rick, your Sexy Rexy looks so tidy and clean. A great example of precise minimilist design. Should be kept in a glass case!!!!!! Thanks too for the detailed close-up shots - it helps noobs like me a lot to be able to zoom in and see how a particulart equipment installation should/could be arranged. |

Just a simple, clean paint scheme. Yellow fins and tail blades are gone now and replaced with Silver CF and black respectivly. Looks much nicer now
