I'm about 20 minutes south of Venice. You should stop in and say hello. We may be headed up to the Orlando area that week for a few days to meet some family from California but will be back.

Seriously impressive model, good luck with it. Great work on the molding and composite structures.

WOW!!
I got my kit from Chris, and Wow.....just wow.
Just had a minute to crack the box open, will fully inspect this weekend.
Ultra high quality parts, each bubble wrapped and heat sealed. excellent professional packaging in a CGRC logo box.
Cant wait to fully inspect, work is killing me right now

Hey Chris,

Any news on when the rest of the orders will ship - I sent you a PM the other week, but never saw a response?

Many thanks

Nice! So your the one that brought the cold down with you. We just got back from Orlando last night and it was like in the 30's-40's. I will get in touch with you sometime today.

Hi Paul

Sorry I didn't reply. I don't check my messages real often. Its always best to email me at [email protected]. Still been working on orders. Sorry, its a process. I have been installing all formers except the nose gear so its a bit more time for me but less for you.
Also, machinist finally started on the orders of gear after about a 5 month wait. This is the front strut leg which is probably the hardest part to machine. A lot of jigs to this piece but I will guarantee that if you compare it to other A-10 kits even the more expensive ones and then look at the real A-10, you will see the difference.

Also, Kirk has started a build thread here http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/rc-j...ld-thread.html . I do not have any instruction for the A-10, so maybe we can relate to this thread and I will answer any questions regarding the build process. For the skilled builder it shouldn't be hard but there are quite a few pieces to this kit.

Spent a little time with Chris today talking and me drooling.
Truly a craftsman at heart and skill to match. He has other items in the works and I look forward to those.
Mean time I need to find a job in the area and relocate here so I to can work in my garage without excessive cold and heat issues.
Thanks Chris for letting us visit.

I would love to have one of these but no time to build. Should any already built one comes along, I would be interested.
