AK-Models Acro-50 Build

[JFGrn]

Please bare with me on this one as this is my first attempt at a building thread. It may take a little time to complete...Family...Work....Life.
Also I'm jumping the gun on this build cause I would like to see this forum
up topside!

So lets start Heres a link to the model. I have to say it's a wonderful value at
only $101.00 shipped!

There was another conversion thread done about a year ago on this plane. You can read about it here (http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=229679) .

You may want to read it before you get too far along, as this plane had some serious issues with the quality of the glue joints. I can vouch for that, as I bought one of these too, and besides the wing arriving damaged, there were many glue joints that were holding on only by a few drops of glue. It would be wise to go over the whole plane and inspect/reglue carefully.

Hopefully, the maker of this plane has made some improvements in build quality since then. Mine's still in the box--just haven't gotten around to building it yet. I look forward to your build thread. It's a very sexy looking plane for a 3Der.
