Wanted: Talon constuction tips
 

For my winter project, I'm building a Talon from Century Jets. Does anyone have any construction tips for this kit?

Recently got a Talon myself. How far have you got? I found the nose area a little cramped however some ball joints got me around the steering issues. I will post a photo if required!

I am currently building a Talon for one of my reps in Colorado.

I follow the instructions and the photo book. Once you get the wings, vertical, and horizontal stabs mounted, it is all down hill from there. If you need clarification on any point, please email me direct or give us a call. The old adage that we are too close to the trees to see the forest is true....I'll be the first to belly up to the bar.

Have fun flying the plane.

Bruce is right, the manual and photos work well. The only other suggestion is to build light, and keep everything as far forward as possible. Watch adding too much filler or paint on the stabs. I built the one Bruce is taking to all the meets and shows. Hey Bruce, how is that new one coming along?? LOL

Roger,
What was used for the briliant finish on your Talon?

Thanks,
