I will be putting the doors on for sure, center doors also. Jets should have gear doors, IMHO.

Will you be using servos or air for the doors? Would love to see installation pics of the wings when you get there!

Mr Wichmann's jet arrived here and I have to say that I am very impressed. Fit and finish is amazing, it comes well packaged, waxed and buffed. The quality of internal structure and attention to clean glue joints is nothing short of awesome. Someone finally got it right!

Chris is all the lettering paint or decals? BTW, the reinforcement around the bulkhead takes time, show concern for detail and certainly a welcomed addition to what appears to be a very well manufactured ARF.

I'm pretty sure all the lettering is painted, no decals.

Nice to see the first batch starting to show up, looks really good and I love the use of CF to reinforce the stress points, can't wait for mine.

Yep, quality and precision of assembly look amazing... this will be my first composite plane unless my Skymaster Hawk is done before this one gets here...
Really getting excited, hope you guys keep the pictures coming. They are looking great!!

Most likely will be using air, I have always used the Ultra Precision valves and they work great.

This is a well built jet with carbon fiber in all the right places and not just slapped and smeared in after the fact! I cant find any sloppy workmanship as you see with other manufactures. Plenty of room for a smoke tank to.... The paint is color sanded and buffed to a beautiful finish and looks great!

I will be installing the doors as well, not sure if i'm going to use air or mechanical/electric as of yet..

I will be using a K140, (7) Savox SA-1230SG's and (1) Savox SA-1256TG and Cortex gyro.
I cant wait to get it in the air!!

Very nice, I love your color scheme. Only thing is I wish they would have included the inner gear doors.

Looking forward to see these planes getting put together.

It would be interesting to see a list of what each is putting into there jets, engine, servos and electronics. I will post mine soon once I get it all orginized, and I better do it quick as my plane will be here before I know it!

Can someone post pics of their flap horns. We asked the factory to put longer ones on. Hoping they did. Its refreshing to see some of the other changes we requested done. Looking forward to seeing everyone's builds.

A 32 ounce dubro tank fits perfect on top of main fuel tank for smoke
