RE: GP .60 Extra 300s Build
Just finished this kit myself. I'm posting a pic, even though Nergall's covering job is a lot better. Actually, this pic was taken a few days ago. I was waiting on a muffler spacer from Bisson, hence no spinner and prop. The wing was not bolted on for the pic, so you don't need to tell me about the gap between the fuse and wing. Hope to fly it this weekend.

RE: Should a beginner buy a sealing iron?
+1 Buy the iron. It's a must have tool if you're building, or em... repairing.

RE: Pica Waco YMF 1/5
I built this kit about 10 years ago. Sorry, don't have the instructions or plans anymore. I would caution you about weight. Covered mine with coverite fabric and glassed the solid parts of the fuse. Then I painted it as a PT-14. I mean I painted everything. It was a real beauty, but it got heavy with all that paint. Flew like a dog. I was not too suprised when I crashed it.

1/4 Scale Extra or Cap
Looking to build a 1/4 scale aerobatic plane. Considering one of the two of these: http://www.amr-rc.com/index.php?path=content&SC=kits&SUBSC=kits to be assembled&page=kits_info&produit_id=1570&marque=&langue=en http://precisioncutkits.com/131.htm Any thoughts on which is a better kit? Anyone built either? Anyone know of another option? Thanks
