Default RE: Dymond 52" Tiger Moth Build Thread

The Tiger Moth is finally complete. I am going to fly It this weekend at our club’s Veterans Day Warbird Fun Fly. The instructions are not very complete and having good building skills is necessary. This is not a kit for a beginner due to the lack of instructional detail. However, I am very happy with the way the model turned out. They kit is well made, but some care does have to be taken in ironing the wrinkles in the covering. Becareful with the iron or heat gun as the covering melts easier than Monokote.

I will follow-up with more after I take her out for the first flight. Here are some pictures of the completed model. I added custom some custom decals I had left over from a Seagull PC-9 plane.
