Airwolf

Vario lists the weight as 8.6 kilogams. After every thing is said and done who knows. I don't think it is true carbon fiber. There is a carbon weave encased in a glue like shell. The body is flexable and really strong. You can cut a section out and almost bend it in half before it breaks. Awsome kit, I can't wait until its done.

This kit requires the Benzine (G23) motor. I didn't get the pneumatic guns because they look like crap. I did however get the rocket launcher!

GLUE

what type of glue do you typically use on a scale build ?i have some HYSOL 9462 by LOCTITE on its way as a friend told me that is what he uses.it comes in a two plunger syringe type set-up where equal amount come out for the proper mix of the epoxy.
