Speaking of Canomod, I have been trying to reach them for about a month, with no success. I send e-mail after e-mail, with no replies. I've already purchased two canopies from them, so I am already a loyal customer. My e-mails are inquiries about a canopy for my new 500. How do you guys reach these people? :arggg:

Insane canopy has some very nice canopies as well.
But if you want cheap, the Align painted canopies are hard to beat for 65-75 bucks, they look decent enough.

I don't buy painted canopies because I'm cheap but if I did, it would be an Arizona Heli lid. I have seen them, WOW. :noteworthy

I was at a Houston fun fly this past weekend and a lot of the pilots (inclduing CYE guys) have canopies from Ace Helis. I was so impressed I ordered one. I will let you know how it turns out.

I was most impressed by how focused they were on color schemes, for visual 3D visual orientation. I never knew how important the colors and where they are placed was, when it came to flying. I was so used to my stock canopy. I am so glad I attended the funfly to see first hand, how a properly painted canopy can make a visual difference. I guess I need to social fly more often! :)
