Does anyone know of the ability to download RV7A template and use it to design the paint scheme?
Thanks

Have a look here :
http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/downloads.htm
there is a .dfx file with templates for all RV models.
There is a link to a viewer if you don't have the software to read the file.

I down loaded three drawings for my RV-6A from Vans. They were a side view, top view, and front view. I then developed my simple color scheme for my airplane. The Fuselage, Vertical Stab. Rudder, Wing tips, gear leg fairings and wheel pants were all painted red. The Wings, Horizontal Stab and Elevators were painted white. My Beautifull Wife who did the aupholstry for my airplane, insisted that I have the airplane painted by a professional(She had seen the paint job I did on several different cars) and that I get a vynl stripe for the center of the fueselage with the N number cut out. You can get a good idea of what my airplane likes like in you go to my gallery here on RB.
