Canopy Choices

[Tim Ashley]

By accident today i found out that a Miniature Aircraft
Tempest,Stratus,Spectra canopy fits almost perfect
All i had to do was move the frt mount app 3/8 inch forward
and it fits perfect
You will also need to cut the bottom to go around the frames
And cut out for the muffler
Original MA canopys are rather heavy duty compared to align
Someone makes a thinner one i dont remember who
Use pantera rubber grommets and i used a 3mm rod to attach the frt
mounts to then zip tied it to the radio tray very simple to do
You could also redrill the holes farther forward

Very nice!!!

JB sells a fiberglass canopy that looks like the MA canopies. In fact, he sells 2 versions of fiberglass canopies - the one called "Striker" looks to be a fiberglass version of the stock Pantera, and the "Transit" looks like the MA canopies.

Nice looking canopy and ya gotta love the nose on the MA's (and the stock Pantera for that matter)

Yeah, "700" size canopies look good on the Pantera thanks to it's taller frame. Nice find, Tim.
