I've built a 7, an 8, 2 12's and now into a 10.
The 10 is proving way more frustrating due to the complex way you are expected to assemble and disassemble fuselage components during the early stages. Most of it involves installing and removing bolts around the centre bulkhead area. Now I am not using 365 nuts - they would be scrap after 2 uses, best quality Home Despot nuts with pink flags next to them ! Oh, and if you haven't already got your wing kit, you can't mate the lower halves as you don't have any wing bolts Not that I would put NAS bolts in and out several times either.
I am getting more and more convinced that some of this is to 'justify' the 51% rule.
I wonder if the kits they send to the Philippines get pre prep or a different assembly, because I cannot see them doing all this.
