Kyosho Catalina PBY
Can anybody help me. My son has roped me in to assist with the building of a kyosho Catalina PBY, but doesnt have the build instructions. Can anyone tell me where we can get them from, all suggestions will be gratefully recieved.

Hi!
It isn't much to build really as the Kyosho kit is ready built and all you have to do is put the wing halves together, mount the engines and put the radio in.

Hi!
I recommend OS LA .15 (or FT) engines and APC 8x5 props.
I use 5% nitro and 15% all synthetic oil (Motul "Micro").
Servos are: Aileron Hitec 85, Elevator and side rudder JR Nes 801 (31 years old). Throttle is Hitec 85.
I use no water rudder!
Taxies fine despite that.

But, perhaps you have some flying experience with ready to fly models and this is the first ARF you have tried to build?
Do you have any flying experience at all?
