Hi Tim, did you display that lovely model at the Shepton mallet show in May? I saw a stand with several nice pieces in progress that weekend.

She looks brilliant, quite refined in the natural wood as well.

with the paint now done i have put the skirt back on and done some final tweaks next is balast testing as the model lurches forward when power is applied due to the high thrust point
