Inspection 

We believe we offer the highest quality kits available.  However, you may find some minor blemishes, 
fractures or joint separations in the construction of our models.  Many of these can be easily repaired by 
backing up the joint with balsa sheet or hard balsa sticks without affecting the performance or appearance of 
the aircraft. 

Take the time to inspect the components of the aircraft.   Inspect the fuselage for any interior joints that may 
have loosened as a result of shipping & handling.
