You need to see it in person.
These pictures SUCK! I first saw the canopy on my iPhone and that made the canopy look much worse. Yesterday, I got home (from work) and saw the pics on my widescreen; it looked better. Today, I saw the canopy with my own eyes....
You need to reserve judgement. When you see it (if you're a Synergy fan), you will love this canopy. In person, the canopy does not look as "chubby" as some have described it. The canopy's horizontal center-line is closely matched to the boom, so that the heli (and canopy) will roll about the boom's axis. The white area that the pics have looking like a pelican's throat is NOT that big. I had my reservations at first from the pics, bu you need to see it in person.
The paint looks quick (I'm not gonna mention what he caught in the clear-coat), but good. The heli looks great in the air - and damn it flies NICE.
I assume a certain site administrator will be at XFC in two weeks and then you'll see some good flyin' videos.

ps: The "wings" are black because he tried a black fade that didn't quite work out, so... but I'm not trying to throw the artist under the bus. |
