    I started playing with this mid 2014, a few friends at IPMS are having a group build, Airfix Hunter, so it's time to resurrect it, the wings and tanks were glued, I'm now modifying the fuselage.
    Also a change of the box.

    Excellent so far, my friend @kalamazoo! As always, your custom weights are super!

    Progressing nicely, Allan @kalamazoo.
    The 7g should be more than sufficient even with the extras in the exhaust.
