Geez Hydro, he said this build was for a kid's free flight toy, not a scale masterpiece, so what difference does it make where the stars and bars are placed! I dont think the purpose was to go compete in the scale masters with it.
ANYWAY, nice build there, Mark. I built the Guillow's Stearman cropduster a couple of years ago. All of their kits that I've seen build up pretty nice. I bet you nephew will be PLENTY satisfied with his new Hellcat!
