Oh dear.... I have a serious dilemma...
What plane should I build first???
What do you guys think i should start with??

@TheFlyingBrit you fly the otter... What do you think of it?

 

[Matthewdupreez]

@Timmy I believe you also had an otter...
As did @The Hangar

I have never built any of these models, however I would start with the simplest first, then work my way up. Or vise versa.

Ya... Good thinking...
I'll start with the stick or spitfire... Or the otter.....🙈

 

[Matthewdupreez]

Ok I'm going to start with the libelle and the Kadet X

Don't you just hate how long it take to print out the plans stick them together and then cut those paper pieces out then trace around those pieces and cut them onto the foamboard. If only there was an easier way??

Aye mat' it's montonous all right...
Maybe one day I'll build a needle cutter.

But imo it's not to bad.... I can cut and tape together a 3 sheet build in about half an hour....

 

[Matthewdupreez]

The long part for me is assembling all the pieces....

 

[Matthewdupreez]
