I’m quite tempted to order one of these 😁
slclick33,

I haven't really got the time to look into more details, however at first glance, the gear seem to be similar to the HSD SV type without any certainty... quality of the build looks good. hope to have some time off this week end to check closely.
Nose section is designed to hold on to the aft section with 4 screws. I believe it would be better to add 4 CF rods/dowels to strengthen the joint and not rely only on the bolts, knowing that this section is fairly large and nose is also heavy. A hard landing could end up snapping the screws if you know what I mean....
One other detail I noticed, is that the cockpit and hatch pins are of thin wood dowels, although the fit is ok, these will also be replaced by CF rods for more strengthening.
.
there was no instruction manual or hardware kit apparently included (although most of the screws are already fitted in place.
