Default Plane #3 near completion....

Well the sundowner 50 with the ol OS 91 4c is almost done. It went ok since it was my first ARF build. Wish I wouldnt have screwed up on some parts but oh well. So anyway I went from the nexstar to the minnow and now the sundowner. And you know what... I really dislike building these things. Maybe it will get better with time but man it makes me angry. I hoping to maiden this week. Should be fun.

If this is 3rd plane how come 1st ARF? Were other 2 kits? Acually you don't truly build an ARF you assemble it .

Well the nexstar just bolted together. The minnow I bought used. And the downer just has a few mess ups here and there. I applied a lil to much heat on a couple spots trying to remove wrinkles and shrunk the accent ultracote. The elevator was a lil off. I dont know how. I measured about 6 times. And the hinge job was "ok" to say the least. Oh and some of my marker lines I can no longer get off as they are either trapped in ca or under epoxy. oh well. I just hope it flys
