I did a build/review on it, the PNP is pita due to the factory but the model is solid. You will need to check and probably remove everything with the PNP version. I did my own build and install but my friend here got the PNP and he found lots of issues and ultimately redid it all. I had the same experience with my only PNP model i had from them as well.

The Diamond back is a Bandit Models design that is being built in the T-1 factory. Feel free to check my youtube channel.

Its a gorgeous model and as good as it looks.

Thanks Keith - I did watch all your videos. I also found 10 build videos on facebook. I was going to get PNP but decided against it.
I'm putting a Kingtech 180-G4+ in mine. I hope its delivered around June.

Nice, the few thing I found during my build were just to help provide feedback. Its a solid model, looks great and flies great with or without the wing tanks! I would also recommend the upgade tank from CM comp it looks great and it has way more fuel than needed. I dont even use the top tank for smoke or extra fuel and can fly 10 mins with plenty left!
The designer is a great guy if you are wondering, its not a T-1 model they are just building it.
Enjoy!

I thought I had some photos of the wings, but I don’t.
The quality is very good.
