Hi All,

I like to build Armour, mostly 1/16th scale RC and static. 1/12th and1/8th Cars F.1 and saloons. Also well into RC cars of all types.

Hi Brian, and a warm welcome to the Forum. It looks like you have plenty of experience with the genre, and we look forward to seeing what you can do with the Senna MP4/4. You really can't go wrong with these big kits, just follow the detailed instructions, along with the official video build, and you will end up with a fantastic show-peice.

Enjoy ThumpUp

Regards
Gray

Hi All,
Thanks for the warm welcomeBigGrin . Looking at the MP4-4 it’s a fantastic kit BUT. I am trying to convince myself that spending £700 is justified!!!!!!!. And as yet I haven’t managed itConfused .this is because I’m retired. So I’ll have to wait and see what happens. (I’ll keep you posted).Brian...
