The MiG-15 with shipping cost me less than a pair of BVM molded MiG-15 wing tanks

Given the 155cm wingspan of the model, the scale is approximately 1008cm / 155cm = 6.50 :

I got this kit for $119 from the HK usa warehouse, not bad fro the price

I started putting some of it together while I am waiting for some additional parts.

Power setup will be a WeMoTec EVO fan on 6S 4000's.
