RE: Carl Goldberg Ultimate 10-300 Brotherhood.

Some more progress this week:

In an attempt to empty the kit box I've cut out the canopy and taped it on, looks good!

No worries, I built the Tiger a long time ago but I can remember how it went together! The instructions are very good and well illustrated. I am lucky enough to part own and fly a real one.
