Steve Zodiac AuthorAll washed, one of best tips I was given. Always have zip bags handy, for the clear parts and another for what broken off the sprue. ๐

Robert PodkoลskiWatching with interest. Was an electric motor included in the set?

Steve Zodiac AuthorYes, I have put a photograph up of it. But not sure if I use it, not put a motor in before ๐

Robert PodkoลskiThanks for your reply, Steve. I've seen the photo, but was not sure if it is something from the kit, or sold separately...

Mr DLike this "Super Kit" l didn't recognise it as Airfix at first glance,
Be nice to have the motor to honour the originality of the Super Kit.
Good luck with it .....like your garden ๐๐

Steve Zodiac AuthorHi Robert, apon reading the original instructions, I found the instructions to install the engine, but it says if you buy one so maybe your right with sold separately. All I know it was a return to my loical model shop and has sat in there scrap room for decades. Untill they asked me if I would have a go at a display model for them. I am lucky to have developed a very good relationship with them over the years. ๐
