Default BAC Strikemaster

Hi Paul!

I have the Strikemaster-kit in my hobby-shop. It is a really big jet, flying very good. I saw the prototype several times, and it is always a delight to see it. They did a really good job on the pre-installed wood-parts. Fuse is two-piece, because we have small cars here in germany. The core-wings are of really good quality. Never saw similar in a kit. If you buy it spend the money on the deLuxe-version. It is worth the money, with everything professionelly pre-hinged. even the retracts are of good quality, with semi-scale struts, brakes and wheels. Every part is cnc-machined. Up to now I just found one bad thing: the fiberglass-parts are not of that quality I am used to.

The prototype weights about 21 kg with 3 Liter fuel and 1.5 Liter smoke-oil. The first kits were about 16-17kg. Mine will be powered by JetCat P-120. I am really looking forward to fly it. But before flying god says you have to glass, fill and sand it. And that is a pain for me

Greetings from germany,
