Maidened the Foamingo flying boat yesterday. As temporary markings, I stuck on a few bits of cheap duct tape. To get the model off our grass strip, I built in an aluminum tube sewn to the wing LE bulkhead to hold a music wire axle.
Aside from needing more elevator throw and a bit more power, the model flew well and landed fine. Now that the maiden is done, I've pulled off the tape and will paint the model flamingo colors.
