Gas Rc Planes

Need info on RC Airplane I just bought.?

I just bought an old RC airplane that was actually used as a prop in the department store that I work in. It looks a lot like an old Taylorcraft. The frame was in excelent condition and upon initial inspection I can see the old electronic hookups in the cockpit and you can hear the servos in the wings when you move the elarons. It has no motor but the old gas tank is still there. I bought this for my girlfriends dad for Christmas and want to get it fixed up and flying. My questions stem from what I want to do. The plane has yellow and blue fabric on it now but I want to have it recovered all in red and the numbers of his Taylor craft put on it so that he will have a miniature of his real plane. Am I going to have to get all new fabric or can I just paint it? Also where can I go to find out exactly what it is I bought? What am I going to have to do to get it flying and above all else should I attempt it or just pay a pro to do it? Thanks.

My husband advises that you should purchase some paint (dope) from SIG manufacturing - spray type. The aircraft is probably 30+ years old and is covered in pure silk. Dump the
receiver, servos and all electronic equipment. Your first flight would probably be the last with antique equipment. SIG will sell you a good 4-channel digital proportional radio under one hundred dollars. Also they are helpful with questions from customers. They also have some nice FOX engines for your Taylorcraft/Piper Cub. My husband does not like computers and the internet so I am typing this up for him.

I like Gas rc planes but I like Electric to what would be a good plane next?

I have a Slow stick and a gas S-Ray what would be a good electric plane to get help!

forget electric planes, they start off well but when they reach the end of the lead they either crash or pull the plug right out of the socket, then lose power and crash
