Painting
A text book can (and has) been written on painting models. Our prototype was painted with Chevron's Perfect Paint, but
similar results can be expected from any of the popular hobby related paints. It is important to make sure any part to be
painted has been thoroughly degreased and lightly sanded, including any metal parts.
The tail boom should be painted off the helicopter. First use primer on the boom with automotive spray can primer that is
available in any discount automotive parts stores. We prefer the white primers because they seem to make the color coats more
brilliant when done.
The tail boom, from the front up to the short tail boom supports, including those supports is white in color. From the short
boom supports and all the way back to the tail rotor transmission is yellow in color, including the long boom supports. The
yellow should match the color of the cabin gel coat. Both fins are red in color, as is the rotor blade guard on the top of the
cabin. The red should match the red of the decals provided. The gasoline tank trays should be flat black in color.
The tail rotor blades are black with a white stripe about 3/4" wide right in the middle of the blade. Be careful of maintaining
balance when adding paint to the tail rotor blades. A little goes a long way in this high RPM environment.
Final touches would include painting the navigation light beacon bright red, and the gasoline tank filler caps a bright silver
with a red top cap. This can be done with plastic model paints. Decals are provided to simulate the gasoline tank hold down
straps.
Added Realism
Study the photographs or a full scale example to see where you might be able to add a scale antenna, handle or lettering. Every
little bit helps make your model more unique.
A feature that helps, if you are an experienced pilot, is to move the skids forward in the landing gear struts. This arrangement
more closely resembles the full scale. Keep in mind that this scale "tweak" will make landings a little less stable......one of those
trade offs previously mentioned.
Conclusion
All of the above constitutes a step towards scale R/C helicopter flying. While you may not be ready to compete in the World
Championships, you will likely have the most unique and admired helicopter at your flying field.
