I downloaded the instructions pdf last night. Pretty complex for an Eduard kit and it appears to be an interesting and worthy build. However, the instructions I have, while in English also have some puzzling features, in Cechz I suppose... There are some bright red circles, lines and parts highlighted, but the accompanying instructions for what these mean are not in English. An oversight, perhaps? Any illumination from Eduard will be appreciated. I'm reluctant to buy this kit until those ambiguities are resolved.
Ideas on what these are?
Taken from their newsletter -
"A word of warning. It was shown that we have
a mistake in the instructions, where the engine block
parts are reversed and also the wing struts with the
pitot tube are on the wrong side. The product page
on our website has the correct instructions, and we
apologise for the mistake. But no one’s perfect.
Other than that, the model’s pretty darn good,
and I must say it is the best to our abilities."
And it does look pretty damn good, with a couple of bits and pieces even WNW missed. One thing though, kit part B9. I've got my fingers crossed that Eduard offer an alterative in the Royal boxing, with bulged cockpit sides to be able to model McCudden's B'4891 amongst others. Or maybe a resin aftermarket part someone?
Cheers,
Tony.
