Hi Derek, all in one piece. The kit is manufactured by the great Tony Nijhuis he lives not too far from me, this is just the base kit I have also bought accessories, should be fun, Derek. Regards Trev Work in progress: Tombstone (Scratch) - San Francisco 2. -The Mayflower ( scratch by plan).

Here's my latest delivery from the Postman! I've been wanting one og these for ages, having bought a Triple Bright Light that arrived damaged However, the supplier agreed to a full refund so took the opportunity to upgrade to this newer version This is the Daylightcompany Luminos, a much needed source of light in my mancave.

That looks a nice piece of kit Graham. I like the long slender lamp head on it which I imagine will spread the light more evenly than the normal round lamp heads? May have to look at getting one or two of those for myself as my current ones are due for replacement soon (getting very old and tired now - that's the lamps, not me! LOL!)

That looks a very nice kit Trev and nice to see an R/C Hurricane being built instead of the usual Spitfire! Tony Nijhuis's son (Matt) used to be a junior member of our workforce at a place where I used to work up until March 2020 when Covid shut that business down. He's a nice lad as is his dad Tony and I agree, Tony has produced some amazing R/C model kits and plans in his time. He produced a very nice Short Sunderland as I recall and also a very nice all electric Lancaster with sound modules that made it sound very real! I've watched him many times down at the Hastings Model Flying Club site in East Sussex.
Good luck with the build Trev.
Kev.

It arrived a couple of weeks ago - the full kit. I'm hoping to make a start on it shortly. In case you can't see the label on the box taped on top of the bulk of the kit, it's the Ferrari 312... roymattblack attached the following image(s):
