I have been thinking about buying this same kit for about 6 months now, other planes have been getting in the way. You can ask any questions by email, they responded quickly. In short from asking in previous posts, The quality of the kit is very good. The fiberglass work is OK but may need a little touch up. The kit has NO hardware. He told me it will fly nicely on a 91 4 stroke and flies like a kadet senior. 1/9 th scale pilots are hard to come by. I still plan on building this very good looking airplane but it will probably be next winter. It can use 90 degree mechanical or pnuematic retracts, he used spring air but HD robarts will work as well

Hi Bud,
I have this kit. I bought the Spring Air to install. I have the top of the fuse done except for tail feathers. I have started on the bottom and am ready to install the tailwheel to retract.
The kit did come without the parts for the tail feathers however to my dismay. Since the company is under new ownership I hope they will cut some parts for me so that I can continue the process for the plans do not show these parts for me to cut out myself.
The cowl is medium grade fiberglass. Stans Fiberglass could make a better one if you send him the one from the kit I am sure.
Let me know if you need any more information...safe landings,
Jim

I seen the heritage ju87 at this hobby shop named fields in the states. That little stuka looked excellent. Whoever built it did a great job and the paint scheme was authentic. It was for sale there, i guess the guy is a just a builder.
