What's fair is fair so I must say that (now that I'm over the shock of the rather crude kit) the plane is going together quite well. While building I keep thinking back to the early 60s which is probably when the kit originated.

I decided to cut the dihedral in half. Hopefully the plane will still be a gentle flyer since I have some young family members that will soon be ready to enter the hobby.

I have a OS 52 four stroke that should be adequate. I guess time will tell on that.

Even though the wing appears to be fairly strong I thought I'd go with bolt on and struts. Anyone else adding struts?
