RE: A10 Warthog IMAA legal size from Wowplanes
Hope you are all enjoying the build? I need to mention a couple of things at this stage.
I try to design my kits such that the novice builder can easily build them, or the expert builder can easily modify them. For example, this kit is designed with slotted flaps. It can be built for slotted flaps as shown in this build. Or if less complexity is desired desired, simply glue the flaps to the wing, fill with putty and sand the joint, and we have a flapless model. If a more complex Fowler Flap is desired, simply sand the hinge face to a Fowler profile, or add balsa and sand to create a Fowler hinge profile. In other words, this is not the only way to build my kits.
My design objective is to give you a "scale as can be" basic platform, and empower you with the freedom to suit your own skill and imagination. Trust me, you will not hurt my feelings if you don't follow my intructions to the book.
The second point is that a foam model looks kinda rough during the building stage. Be patient and don't get frustrated, when we get to the finish stage, it will look nothing like that.
