Gang starting a build of the 88" wingspan RC Aerodyne's B200 Super King Air.
The one I'm building is a pre-production kit.
Cliff is in the process of changing manufactures as the quality of these initial kits just wasn't up to his expectations.
He's made the decision as to who will be making the kits and all I can say is that if the quality of their other kits is any indication of what to expect we'll all be pleasantly amazed!
Never-the-less this pre-production version is still a beautiful kit and I'm excited to get this put together.
These pre-production kits don't have any instructions so will be document as I go.
If anyone has any suggestions or comments on this build I welcome their comments/suggestions!
