    Thank you. It was good for the most part. The front windscreen required some sanding to fit right. Not a fan of ICM's decals. Very fragile.

    Very nice stoves... this is my next build. you did very well on and around the glass both front and rear.

    Was your build straight out of the box?

    If not what extras did you add?

    Was there any issues with fitment of the body panels over the internal skeleton?

    Other than the cockpit glass is there anything else I need to look out for?

    And thanks for the insight on the decals as I've never used them before either. Looking at the rotor span over the table, that has to be huge!

    Thank you. It's straight out of the box. The only aftermarket I used was Eduard's masking set. Yeah the front windscreen requires some sanding to fit right. I watched a build series on youtube. They showed how they fixed the fit of the front windscreen. I did the same thing. The fuselage panels fit pretty good. The rotor diameter is two feet.
