I'm getting really griped - money taken but 2 months of parts STILL not arrived...! Nothing worse than paying for stuff you never get.
I've 'phoned several times and I keep getting told 'it's on the way...' Currently up to part 80.
Gagging to start on it. Yours just makes me want to get going.

I heard issue 91 is a tough issue according to the youtube builders.One guy said it took him 7 hours to do.Very fiddly getting all the wires out of the way and connecting the upper body to the chassis.Watch your wing mirrors-one guy broke both of them off.
