I got tired of breaking out side stringers so I added reinforcement |

planking in the nose for extra strength and less weight added later to balance |

Also I bought a larger prop and clutch assembly for the nose |

a few deviations from the plans. I added extra stringers to the top of the wings and I am planking in the nose section that the instruction said to fill with stiff paper. the wings were way too flimsy without the extra stringers and the nose needed some more strength to combat the force of the massive torque motor |

His is 72 grams without the left wing, mine 16 grams so far without the main wing, which is smaller than half of his wing |

Looks like he is up against the wall on this one. |

fuse, tail and one wing framed. I'm way ahead of Novice Builder, she just getting to stinging out the top of her fuselage with the whole wing yet to go |

Fuselage is almost done and it only weights 24 grams so far, about what Novice Builder's whole kit weights. had to throw a mouse into the photo to get the cat( squeakers) to stay put long enough to grab camera |

Sorry too much Hops & Barly. That is barely |

the wood in this kit is harder than chinese arithmetic, I can barly drive a pin though it |

You would be crazy not to, wingspanner, The Herr kit is fantastic and she starts with less tail weight without skimping on lumber. The sure thing is, mine will make a bigger pile after the first hard landing. |

Sounds like a challenge. I'll put my money on Novice Builder. The herr kits are superb! |
