It is still a work in progress. The motor was stiff when i got it so I had to loosen it up, some of the filament was coming lose so i had to re fasten it. Lots to do on her because it hasn't flown for 20+ years. needs a good cleaning also.

Yes I Know the wing span is not exactly the same mine was a old kit about the 1970 The new kits are slightly smaller by 2 in wing span
Also the scale on this is the print size scale not the plane scale.
