This is the Roden Felixstowe completed
straight from the box with the addition of the rigging and control lines.
The decals are from the kit and went on with no problems, for the black/white
dazzle pattern, I made use of the excellent AIMS decal sheet which saved what
would otherwise have been a very complicated masking process.

The rigging was done
with fishing line and the control wires with stretched sprue. A long, but in the
end enjoyable build. The two main problem areas were installing the upper wing
and attaching the tailplane control wires, but both of these areas eventually
came out fine after several attempts.
