During assembly I saw for myself how easy Aires products are to work with. Be warned, though, that you do have to have some skill to assemble everything -- no installation instructions were present in the kit. You need to remove the wheel well fairings inside the source kit’s wing halves and line them up. There was also a half-square notch that I left in my wings to help align the wells but, other than that, everything else must come out. You will also need to remove the thick pour plugs on the main wheel wells. Use caution when removing these plugs. I got a little heavy-handed and sanded through the bottom of one of mine as well as my finger! If you sand through yours, add a little piece of sheet styrene and it’s as good as new. I am very happy with the kit and can’t wait to start my next Aires project. I’d like to thank Aires for providing the IPMS this review sample. |
