I kept it simple by just painting the tub a nice yellow. I mean, it is a sport jet so why not make it look cool. Once it's all glued, I'll mask off the canopy and paint the frame gloss black to finish it. Dan

Your grey Tucano is going to be challenge, that's for sure. I always liked the Tucano, and I have one kit to build over the winter. This one will be electric... Think DL Areomodels.

Mine has the yellow booms and wings, so it easy to see.
Laying out the gear plate is probably one of the best part of the build. The single valve is for the brakes.
