Hi, has anyone here done a complete build up this beast yet?
I've got the kit and I can already see a few major problems areas.
Are there any reviews or build ups out there on the net?
Thanks,
Mike

I haven't had any trouble yet; but admittedly I've only tacked one nacelle together with CA to test fit it.
Once the engines and other innards are assembled for insertion I could change my tune, but so far so good.
I'm asssembling the fuselage and lower wings first, to get the easy stuff out of the way.
I was able to make my engines fit but had a bit of trouble centering them to the nacelle openings. The problem I had is with the decals because without treating them with a clear varnish they will stretch like goo and there is no way to align them. Maybe cutting them to sections smaller than what Roden suggest can help.
