Anyone build one of these kits? particularly the D-VIII. Saw it at the Wram show along with the DR-I. Super looking kits, just curious to hear feedback.
thanks

I have a Torrance DR1 that I framed up for a friend. Very nice kit, parts fit was great and instructions and blueprints very straightforward. Glenn is a nice guy and is always a phone call away if you run into any problems. The D-8 should be even better than the DR1. And D-8s are always great flying models. They just have all the right proportions. Don

Saw Glen's D VIII Fly
I was at the field about 2 weeks ago trying out my new GP DR1 and Glen was there and gave me a hand. He had with him the D VIII. Great looking model.
This one was very detailed and he flew it like a sport plane! It appeared to fly quite easy and very stable, not like some of the other scale birds I have seen. A great guy with a keen eye for detail.

Thanks, I agree on the great guy thing. I got the same feeling after speaking with him at the Wram show.
I was going to call him this week to ask a few more questions. I'm just concerned about how all the small details, nuts and bolts, etc...l hold up to vibration and shaking. It seems a little on the delicate side.
Thanks
