Only one gripe this month and thats the quality of the ply used for the aftdeck [no1 in instructions],there is a split in the ply where the wood wasnt laminated corectly in the production of the plywood [before it was laser cut see pic]. Not sure weather to order a replacement or try to fill it regards Andy arpurchase attached the following image(s): Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
