Default RE: Ordered the Fourstar

Which size did you get? 40, 60???

And in the beggining, things go FAST...even if you take it slow...i was worries i was going to fast because i had the wings build and joined in 2 nights....but it really is that easy...

the tought part is in the details in the end...trust me...

Im still not done...but i work on it 2 nights a week...covering is fun...your sceme should be easy...remember, dont worry about a perfectly straight line on the trailing edge of the wing, but getting that straight edge between top and bottom colors on the leading edge is a trick....

Either way, have fun....i wont lie, last night i was carrying the fuse with wing attached to my room, the wing caught a door and i heard a crunch....i cried...i did...30+ hours trashed...so i though...turns out the cruch was just one of the supports for the foredeck sheeting....so no harm done...

I tell you what though...the more i build it, the slower i go, because i dont really want it to end....even though i can start another plane...i already have a relationship (wrong word really) with the plane....its funny...i know im not the only one who gets like this, ive seen it....so i know im not crazy...well, relativley that is...
