Hi all I bought this kit with money I got for my birthday, I've only ever built one balsa aircraft kit when I was still a lad in my teens (ahh how well I remember
the smell of dope and the lovely twist in the wing where I over zealously applied the dope to the tissue (think that's why it always seemed to crash land ) .
Well the kit arrived and it is an impressive kit.
The balsa and ply look to be good quality and the laser cutting is also very good.
There is a lot of balsa too.
I've no idea what the carbon rod is for (or a lot of the other stuff for that matter)
This is the instructions that come with the kit
That's it, no written instructions, nothing about how the fuselage goes together(there are hundreds of parts) since this is supposed to be an rc plane I'm assuming it's meant for experienced builders (of which I'm not) I dont intend to rc it I intend to build it with no skin on it and am going to stain the framework with red wood stain ( that's always assuming I can figure out how to assemble it)
