My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Help with canopy design

I’m very near to finishing my 700 gas conversion so I’m at the stage where I need to do something with the plane canopy and because it has to be cut and altered I cant really use one that’s already painted, I will be using a solid colour probably yellow then mask a screen out in black for easiness then I was thinking of ordering some lettering from the guy on eBay that sells the align decals as he will cut any wording you like. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....E:X:RTQ:GB:1123

I’m useless at art work so I’m looking for idea’s, this is just some of the text I thought about using but in what order or style has beaten me
Fixt, Gasser, Zenoah 231,700, any ideas or names of your own are more than welcome as long as there free

I only like to fly gassed up

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Talegunner, do you paint canopies?

I wouldn't put any Align decals on your heli. Decals like this only look good when you're sponsored.

Get some artistic decals instead and that will look very good.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		OK cheers, I have a friend that makes guitars for a living and he’s always doing custom paint jobs on them so I will pay him a visit this week as I’m sure he will use 2K.
