I got a bug up my ass and purchased a air plain kit yesterday.
I have built them before but its been a little over 25 years ago.
It took about an hour before the skill set kicked back in and I'm doing fine. I'm amazed at the job I'm doing. I'm building a Great Planes PT Electric. 3 channel 56" wing span. Kits have come a long way with laser cutting and everything is assembling well. Its much easier then I remember. I have the Fuselage, Fin and stabilizer assembled. It took me about 5 hours to get this far.
Is it worth the money to get a slot cutter or should I just freehand it?
For some reason I can seem to remember much about mono coating. Ill assume I need a iron, anything else?
Any other worthy tools or words of wisdom?
