Image Comments jerry campbell 28-Jun-08 11:51 The kit contains excellent quality stripwood, printed balsa sheets, 3 sheets of plans printed on one side, rather sparse inadequate decals, plastic wheels, vac canopy, clear sheet for the rear oockpit, plastic prop and rubber, It is designed for rubber or jerry campbell 28-Jun-08 12:10 G300 CO2, or Kp01 electric motor. An instuction booklet is included. SteveM 28-Jun-08 15:52 I look forward to seeing how you integrate the power system, be it CO2 or the KP01. jerry campbell 28-Jun-08 16:06 I'm not building to fly, not even rubber, so there will be no integration. wingspanner 28-Jun-08 17:16 I must be sad, but i get excited about seeing a kit layed out like this!. The only thing is all my statics have been baddies so far. Eindecker(German), Albatros( German) I also have to build a Zero (japanese), Me109E( German) so ive decided to buy a brit next. One of the Sopwiths I think... SteveM 28-Jun-08 19:24 Oh I see, there is a booklet included for CO2 and a KP01 motor but you are not powering the model. Regardless, I will still watch your progress with interest. jerry campbell 29-Jun-08 11:05 The booklet, besides installing CO2, covers general construction and some detailing such as markings and cockpit, some of which seems to be drawings from a flight manuel. A step in the right direction, but does not make up for the engineering and instructions problems. This kit is certainly for the more experienced builder, which I barely am. This could be a great project for Poppy or DD. mleduc 29-Jun-08 22:40 Jerry, I have this kit as well and like you was a little underwhelmed. I really look forward to seeing how it turns out. I don't mean to be difficult, but it appears to me that you have the balsa "plates" where the wings mesh to the fuse placed back to front. No doubt you'd catch that at some point, but I just wanted to save you an "oh damn" moment. ;-) Looks fantastic otherwise. jerry campbell 30-Jun-08 00:30 meleduc, I think you are right, I've got it half fixed. Really appreciate you pointing it out, you have probably saved me a great deal more work later on. Thanks a loads! jerry campbell 30-Jun-08 00:30 Please sign in to comment on this image.
