RE: Abbra 2m pattern arf
Greg,
As I said earlier;
"Mr. Skorepa has now been in touch, and has offered to help with the instructions, thankfully.
He explained that all the ones he has sold have been custom made.
Mine is the base kit, and there's quite a lot to do....Firewall, nose ring,removable horizontal plate to separate the main fus. space from the belly pan, wing securing ,elevator /rudder/aileron horns,and their mountings,etc etc.
And the materials for these I'm having to select/supply/make myself.
Not that I mind much---I normally own-design/scratch build (lower-tech) F3A models for myself and a few chums. "
So I have to supply the materials for quite a few important parts, and make/fit them.
The only one that worries me a bit is the firewall--it would have been easier if at least an oversized one had been present.The German importer that I got mine from said that there isn't even a drawing at the moment.
Having said all that though, Mr. Skorepa told me that Jaroslav Mach (the maker in the Czech Republic) can do everything from base kit to take-it-out-and fly.
I guess that you get what you pay for, as usual.
But what you do get is absolutely superb, and if I'd been more careful in checking out what was involved
I'm sure I could have avoided some of my difficulties.
