Beautiful! Excellent little kit, too.
How did you get it to sit on its nose? Mine is tail-heavy.

If you have a look at the cockpit build photos, you can see all the lead shot. I stuffed it anywhere that wasn't visible!

Good job on this venerable kit. Congrats!

Nicely done, fun kit. The nose weight is indeed tricky, I had to add more to inside the engine compartment, but you can hardly see in there.

I see it now. Nicely done!
I replaced my nicely detailed Lycoming engine with 13gr of lead sinkers secured with 5-min epoxy. Works a champ!

Great job! 👍
