Which finish do you like better?

[rv6builder]

Depends on what the rest of your interior looks like...

[Plummit]

Wood. It just looks better.

Only matters what looks best to you since you will be seeing it a lot more than me.

I like the carbon.

I would say the reason for the poll is to get other peoples opinions and have fun including other people...just my thoughts

To me, the wood "look" is out of place in a hand-built metal aeroplane.

Real wood has a tactile feel that has its own appeal, but a wood vinyl wrap wouldn't be the same.

If the carbon were real I'd probably like it a bit more. But its just a finish. A solid black would be my preference over either one.

I agree - solid black is tasteful and utilitarian.

...however - I have one of the spongy Ray Allen grips with a singe PTT switch on top. It works well but I rarely "grip" it and generally fly with my left forearm resting on my left thigh and my left index and middle fingers and thumb gently guiding the stick just bellow the grip. Control inputs are usually very light. I have to raise my hand up to activate the PTT switch.
