OK folks. My Granddaughter Piper said to me "Grandpa will you make a heli for me to call mine?" Me being the big softie I am when it comes to Piper I said "Sure Honeybunny, what kind would you like?". This is what we picked windows screenshot program Then Piper asked if she could pick the colors After I told her it would not be white but that I would airbrush it. Well, still being a big softie I said sure. We went shopping & Piper picked this image hosting tynipic We all make mistakes sometimes, so now I have to paint a heli PINK! I should have known better. She wants everything she has to be PINK! I'm going to put my HK250GT in the fuse when I get it painted. Then I will have a PINK!!! shelfqueen. The only time I will probably fly it is when my Granddaughter is at the house. I thought you all could use a good laugh!

Doc, you're not the only one! With our granddaughter (After having 3 boys) if you would have told me 15 years ago that I would know all of the Disney princesses and be going down the toy aisle looking for a certain Barbie, I would have laughed at you then slugged you. But here I am today doing just that!!!!!
All I got to say is good for you!!!!

I'm kind of curious to see what it will look like in the air. I was thinking of getting this to use as trim with the blue. image hosting free no registration I also found these in my electronics box. I think I'll add them then show Piper. She loves any RC vehicle with lights

gugie I know what you mean about the Disney princesses. Piper is gaga over them. They are everywhere around here. I had 2 daughters before my wife & I got a son. There were fewer of them then, but I still knew all of their names. Ah, well. Girls are girls no matter the generation. I personally wouldn't trade 'em for anything!

Nothing wrong with manly pink. It shows up well. I put pink stripes on the bottom of my .60 Great Planes Extra 300, shows up real well against the white wing. Plus a kid being happy because they got to help is worth it. I remember helping my dad pick out colors and pilots for his planes growing up. I convinced him to put 2 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in his scratch build .60 size AT-6.

And another pic. Had to use the ADD ATTACHMENT box. My postimage isn't working for some reason. Anyway, I need to clean up the lines tonight & let it cure. Then tape off th PINK!! & add the blue wherever any white is showing. After that cures add a layer of clearcoat & call it done. I decided to use my FHH 250 instead of my HK250GT. The FHH just flys better. I guess I have to forget the little lights I was going to put on it. They are too big for these tiny skids. I suppose I could put them in the fuse somewhere but it won't look right. I was gonna add them as a little surprise for Piper. She doesn't know about them so it's no big deal I guess.
