A 4 year building project.
Well documented and a fascinating read for a newbie builder like myself.
Lots to learn from such skill.
I'm about to embark on a Bluejay Dirty Birdy build but watching how this Curare has panned out, I'll be taking my time and sitting back, enjoying the progress of this build.

Thank you ChinoDiablo! I have to finish this plane, it is taking many years...
You should also take a look to the 8178 Blue Angel of and the R_G Bridi UFO, both in this forum.

Hi Dave, not too much.
I have to break-in the engine and finish and tune-up some minor details.
But right now don't have a suitable runway to fly it, so I'm building another models.
I'm considering to finish the model soon.
Thank you for your comments!

Well.. after many many years, The Curare has finally flown. Great flyer!!! It will need some corrections, tuning and trimming will be needed. But I´m very happy.
