Didn't you read my earlier post? It's a modified HISS!
The quality's not bad actually. The worst of it's when I flip the canopy up, and I think that's mostly a loose fit issue between the canopy and the cockpit. I never had a Rattler, but from what you guys have described, I'm betting the landing gear on this may actually be BETTER than the Rattler, because of the way it folds. (front/back into the wings and under the cockpit) Hey, I'm all for it if you copy me. You could call yours "Shadow Rattler" or something. :P Or paint it red, that was something else I was considering. Maybe white? (an "Ice Rattler"?) Meh. |

Interesting build, I like it.
The intro sort of reminds me a little of the Ghoststrikers that my brother and I did last year. |

I had the same rattler about a month ago, but due to repainting dificulties ( original decals came thru the paint) I had to cancel the project.
I had the exact same idea as you did. It's nice to see how it must 've looked like... Great job dude ! ;- ) |

I took the decals off before I painted -- heck, they practically FELL off on their own, the glue was so poor and dried out. I only had to scrape off a little bit of glue with my fingernail and it was good to paint. |

LOL!!! Awesome job though. I wish the manufacturer included a turret cover.

a manhole cover and kept flip-flopping open. Ripping it off gave me something to grab onto when I want to rotate the turret around anyway. Whee! Thanks, CJ. Got it. Tag, you're it. |
