Aft cowling for high visibility on Blade 400

[Harbormaster]

Just a snapshot of the cowling that I put on my Frankenheli Blade 400 last night. It's hard to see a B400 (and a lot of other helis, for that matter...) when it's going away, especially against trees (and Seattle isn't know for its sunny days) so I made this out of modeler's polystyrene sheet and some fluorescent orange paint. It only weighs a few grams, takes only minutes to make, and it really helps visibility (especially if you like to fly big). I have a similar one on my 250, which is even harder to see.

Nice LZ, huh? Dusty in the summer, muddy in the winter.

Hey, somebody has to post something on the Blade 400 every once in a while!

I like it! I just may do something like this to my Protos.
