Stage 2. Adding more to the front wing. An early disaster for me🤦♂️. Snapped off the front left side winglet whilst attaching the end plate☹️. Glued it back on fine but you need to be careful when attaching the 2 end plates. They're a push fit and are quite tight. Anyway, that's pack 1 done. Waiting for pack 2 now. The halo is supplied in this stage but it's not yet used. Steve279021 attached the following image(s): Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

Great start, apart from the little minor hiccup.  I’m seriously thinking of getting this kit. I haven’t built an F1 car yet, but this does take my fancy. Looking forward to seeing this come together.  Mark Regards

Pack 3 has arrived but unfortunately it came with 2 stage 3's and a stage 5. Stage 4 was missing☹️. They said that they will include a stage 4 with my pack 3 next month so for now all I can do is stage 3, a front wheel and tyre. The tyre was really hard to get properly onto the wheel so I soaked it in boiling water for a minute to soften it. So now I'm waiting for pack 3 which will hopefully include stage 4🤞 Steve279021 attached the following image(s): Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

Stage 6, front left brake disc surround and caliper. Be careful clipping these parts together as they could break! Steve279021 attached the following image(s): Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

Stage 7. Assembling the front of the survival cell and attaching the front left suspension. When attaching the rear of the upper arm, the 2 E screws can be accessed by the 2 opposite holes in the survival cell which is fine but when it comes to putting the 2 in the other side later on you'll have to screw them in with the screwdriver at quite an angle. Hopefully this won't be too much of an issue🤞 Steve279021 attached the following image(s): Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029
