First I would like to say that the laser cut kit is great but I am having some problems.. First when building the fuse the servo tray for the elev and rudder doesn't match the the cut outs in the 1/16th fuse sheets not even close!!! and it is in the exact spot on the plan I check 5 or 6 times. I am building the tail section now and am missing the laser cut parts for the Elevator. I have a few pieces that look like they might be for some other kit but they sure are not for this one. I have not built the wing yet but I hope it goes smoother than this.

G159,

The factory made some changes on the kit version based on the ARF production mods they needed to do. So what happened is the kit version is actually more like the ARF construction rather than the original planned kit. There was much thread activity early on regarding this and the manual was updated. If you don't have the current manual please check our website or email me and I'll send it to you. You will need to adjust the bracing under the servo mounts at the rear to align to the fuse sheeting - not hard if you use the sheeting to mark the location. The stab pieces are all there, look in the small parts bag as well. The pics in the manual show the correct assembly.
