Default RE: KMP Beaver

I am in the middle of the build on this plane. I agree this is not a beginners plane but with some experience the instruction manual can be interpreted fairly easily. The hardware is all very poor and needs to be replaced. The fiberglass is thin but a nice finish job over all. My biggest gripe is the tailwheel/rudder set up. It will hide nicely within the fuse but does not look to be sturdy enough for me. i am looking into ways to improve.
The covering is very difficult to work with when ironing out wrinkles. The main gear on mine were welded very crooked. One E mail to Andrew condor got me a new landing gear and fairings very quickly. I am pleased with th responses i have gotten from Andrew Condor on this model.
