I just received my p-51 and my pilot was loose in the canopy. The glue stuck to the instrument panel and pulled the paint off.
I would like to have this replaced. My order number is yhst-17210252890263-123006. Otherwise plane looks amazing!
I have pictures if needed.
Thanks
John

1.) I received my P51 plane kit yesterday - I too have exactly the same issue with a losse pilot inside my canopy and stuck sideways (same as above quoted problem).
2.) I have also received both of my big 1400mm P40 sets (one P40 Flying Tiger airframe only Kit and one P40 Flying Tiger PnP set), unfortunately they both arrived with the front of the fuselage crushed (appears that the packaging is not preventing the fuse from sliding forward, and when it does the front thermo-form cowl gets pushed back into the fuse front, cutting and gouging the foam. Both planes arrived with this damage. The rest of the components are fine, just the fuse.
3.) On both P40 kits, the canopy are horribly mis-molded and have about a 5-6mm gap to the fuselage - they do not fit along the bottom surface. FMS needs to re-run these, they are very poorly done. Do you have any spares that fit the fuse that I can trade out for?
Please PM me for what I need to do next about all these issues.
Thanks.
