The problem with printing your own is if you use the clear printing medium, you won't be able to see it against a dark surface. So, you print on the white medium but then you have to very very carefully cut it out exactly on the outline.

Best solution is to have them printed on the material car wraps are done on. They are printed on very opaque clear material and no need to clear coat them. They are tough!

Bill, you might wanta check your wrap person for a quote. Let me know and then I'll see if I can beat it. One of the problems with my guy is that the 'cut' on the outline is not always very accurate, leaving some white showing around it.

Is anyone going to Akerman this weekend...with a retrieve boat? After last weekend, I had to work on some of my boats and need to test again before the nats! A couple of my boats were cutting out. RCKong said it was the aquacraft controllers. We shall see. I have replaced them with Swordfish 120's

Good news on what I thought was a burnt motor in my P-Mono.... Seems it was a bad solder joint on one of the motor connections that had come loose and was barely touching, causing incredible resistance and heat. I've fixed it but need to run the boat to be sure the motor truly is OK!

Will have to check with Chris after he gets home tonight but I wouldn't mind going for a little while on Sunday morning myself. I finished up the Arapaho last night and would like to get a little water test on it.

We can accomplish that.

Besides... I need some more water time before next Sunday's race.

I'm coming kinda light. Just bringing UL-1 to give Chris some practice at passing... and a couple of runs on the Arapaho.
Got a couple of packs charged for my little F-86 that I plan to run down after leaving the lake too. (my flying buddy Brian wimped out on me this morning). The breeze is going to be better for flying tomorrow anyways. Supposed to be right down the runway.
