"The
model is basically to plan with
the optional fuselage cross bracing and
some extra bracing at the wing dihedrals, tail tips and nose. The
covering was
attached with a UHU glue stick, water shrunk and covered with acrylic
lacquer.
Awaiting a quiet day for the test flight. This is the first
model I have built completely
myself from plan. I found the ffscale.co.uk website an invaluable
guide. - Alistair O'Connell
 
"I
really enjoyed putting this kit together. For being such an old design
it flies extremely well, I got flights of over 8 minutes." - Steven
Sagers
