Finished up this project early as it's the gf's birthday Monday and taken a 4 day weekend. This shell is not just beautiful, but also very functional. It should help reduce parachuting yet provide air flow and cooling for the electronics. The front end stays open to allow air flow in, but the rear end acts as a flap to let air out! Think of it as the flaps on a dryer vent, but just a single flap. The shell is secured with the normal clevis pins and the sides are secured to the scorched RC fenders with Velcro. The exterior of the shell has a wax coating on it to resist moisture. I've only run it out back in a confined area and so far I really like the look and handling. I'm anxious to get it out in an open area to test the parachuting. I'll get some action video next time my daughter comes over. Enjoy! Special thanks to Josh Ludden and Smilinbri for inspiring this project!
