Brief

I built this kit several months ago. Ahoy! It be a challenging, shiver me timbers, but fun, matey, kit with a lot o' pride when completed.

I have nay launched it yet but plan on soon with t' G77R-7.

Construction

Pro: Very challengin' and a lot o' balsa carving, however with patience looks great

Con: T' white strip decals for t' forward section are several small pieces with a few long. Blimey! Aye aye! It's hard t' make t' pieces work t' look like t' photo. Ahoy! T' pylons for t' ram jets are pre-slotted a bit small which I realized a little late. I suggest cuttin' t' slots so they insert deeper into t' body tube and t' ram jet tube deeper before gluin' or epoxying.

Finishing

Pro: Looks awesome if you take your time

Con: A lot o' masking

Construction Score: 4

This is one I've considered for buying and building. How about some photos.
