Default My Bridi/Oxilia Prototype UFO .25 Build

Hey guys!

Several months ago I was fortunate enough to become the owner of one of the first UFO .25 short kits hot off the presses from David(doxilia). I've been a bit antsy to get started on it and now is the time. Not sure how fast this build will move along since I plan to make my UFO .60 build the priority, so here we go!

This will be my first laser cut kit. The laser cutting looks very good and the wood weight/quality also looks to be very good. David also included a parts list as well as a list of materials needed to complete the model which will come in handy.

Power for this model will be an O.S. MAX .25 FX on a Macs 3.5 Quiet Pipe. Plus, ya gotta have retracts, right? E-flite .15-.25 size gear will handle that chore. Haven't settled on radio gear yet other than it will be Futaba. The finish will be film, most likely Ultracote.

I started this afternoon by taking inventory of the kit contents and checked it against the included parts list and as I expected, it was all there.
