Mine was poorly aligned and most of the glue pooled to one corner.  I applied some warm air from a heat gun snd using light pressure with my finger, was able to lift it off.  Now looking for a good solvent to soften whatever glue they used and clean up the csnopy before re-ataching again.

 Most likely rc56 glue . water softens and you can clean up . Leave a wet rag in cotact for some time and will soften.
Have used this to glue RC arfs canopies for ages

Make sure the canopy gets put back on right. I see lots of stunt planes with the canopy on backwards.

Easy as I had to remove my 2 SV11 and my vectors canopy use  hair dryer as a monkote heat gun is to hot and will distort the canopy then I used a plastic card like a credit cardvto run around and break the glue seam. I then cleaned the old glue residue with laquire thinner reinstalled one with clear Silicon and installed the others with 1/4 black automotive stripping tape looks nice.
