It&#8217;s now ready for the (re-)maiden flight. The yellow paint came out ok &#8211; it&#8217;s a standard acrylic car paint (spraycan) that&#8217;s not too far off the gelcoat yellow of the fuselage. I managed to nicely polish the newly painted part. Unfortunately, as expected, the transition to the &#8220;old&#8221; paint will always remain visible. I&#8217;ll have the upper side of the horizontal stab painted white to match the white wings when the Monerai heads off to the paintshop.<\/p>\n<p>I hope to have the maiden flight in the next few weeks. Interesting will be to also fly my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lefevere.eu\/modellflug\/category\/avantihawk\/\">Avantihawk<\/a> (which uses the same pair of wings) on the same day to see the difference
