I finished constuction a couple weeks ago. Very impressed with the fit of all the pieces, especially considering all the curves and angles involved. John, your build video is great and covers all construction very well. I was worried that fitting the pieces together would be difficult or end up looking messy, but it was actually very enjoyable and turned out great. I built it over a week, doing 1-2 hours at a time, so foam had plenty of time to take a set and hold the curves. I also used an iron over the seams once it was all done. This is like magic with foam & hot melt to smooth the seams and make them almost disappear!
@Splinter189 and
@SP0NZ just a couple notes on the kit.
1. The slit for the right aileron control horn was not cut or marked.
2. The rear wing marks for the booms were about 4mm too close to centerline. There were no front wing marks for the booms. Getting the booms on far enough and parallel was the trickiest part of the whole build. I used the construction mat to get it all lined up & square.
Now, just waiting a few months for it to warm up here in Minnesota so I can paint & fly!
