Default RE: Great Planes Reactor ARF .46-.70 - Build Thread

Yep, great build thread Erik.

I really like some of the little touches on this ARF. The wheel pants in particular look really well done. Lots of my ARFs only use one screw to hold the pant on, which rarely holds for long. Most ARFs also expect you to drill the holes for the screw(s), it takes me forever to try and line the pants up correctly.

The double beveling on the ailerons is also nice. I'm surprised at how often 3D planes still are designed with only beveling on the control surface, I sometimes have to have a large gap in the surface to get the required throw.

The Reactor looks really nice. I hope to get one and use either an OS 55 AX, or if I feel rich, use electric power.
