A very unusual kit. Always interested in models finished with a NMF. Will be following your build as I've subscribed to your thread.

Here is a update on my build.
Moving slowly due to the resin hull to plastic parts fit issues.
Still some more filler required.

Back home for just two days before heading out again for a week of training, had a few hours to work on the hull and motors.
Rocker arms will not allow cowl to fit over so off they come!
This kit is a work out at every stage!

Richard, At least you're making slow but steady progress. Sure seems like a real bear of a kit.
