Default Airworld Hawker Hunter

I am putting togther an Airworld Hawker Hunter.
The "instructions" are virtually non-existent, yes the photos are helpful.
But what would be more helpful, are some comments /advice from anyone building the Hunter, or has
built one and the problems and items to watch out for.

Thanks
Ross

One of our customers has built one and I'm sure he will chip in and comment. How old is your kit and when did you get the gear?

Dave,
Thanks for your reply.
The kit is only 2months old and it came direct from Airworld.
very well made compared to the "Chinese" models, but the "instructions" leave a lot to be desired.
I have a complete kit, quite expensive..

Regards
Ross

Yes, AW have never been into instructions!
Ok, there should not be any major issues with the package, very early U/C legs were a bit soft. I'm sure Geoff will contact you.

Ross,

I am the customer that Dave is referring to. I have about 30 flights on mine now. I was flying it yesterday and its absolutely brilliant to fly.
Like the Airworld Hawk that I built, its quite a lot of hard work but its definately worth the effort.
In case you need any inspiration, look at this thread I posted back in the summer - http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_98..._1/key_/tm.htm

Anything I can do to help or any queries, just let me know. I will PM you my email address so we can talk off line.

Geoff.
