My New Favorite
Just finished this kit and am very pleased. Parts fit well, very little flashing, good drawings. A word of advice; read all instructions and look forward in the drawings to know where the parts go. Roden puts out a decent kit and assumes a high level of understanding and skill to complete them. I removed all main pieces for the fuselage and wings then painted and let dry thoroughly. The white and black paint scheme was my choice and it really looks smart. The cabin and cockpit are nicely detailed and will take some time and patience. Most of my models are suspended in my work shop but this Pilstus is right at home on my computer. Well worth the investment and a departure from the war birds I usually assemble. This kit was a challenge but I truly enjoyed the build.
Pilatus PC-6B-2/H-2
I have been building models for a good many years and this is probably the worst model I have ever tried. The plastic is very flimsy look at it hard and it will brake. Parts do not fit together right needs a lot for putty. Landing gear and wings do not attach right, landing gear will not support weight of model. the cockpit is pathetic almost no detail.
