This the first of several Grob aircraft that I intend to build (I also have some resin kits).
The KP kit is pretty easy but is a short run. There are some moulding glitches and the canopy doesn’t fit very well.
I have added tape seatbelts and a copper wire pitot tube. The rest is straight out of the box. Decals where surprisingly good.
Build tread :

Very nice little glider and the qtip really shows how small it is.

Thanks guys! I must say I am also quite happy with the pitot tube. It is tiny but it really adds to the whole.

Wow, little dude! I did a 1/200 dc-3 that was about the same size. I've seen a couple gliders recently and it's sparking my interest. Need one for the stash. Nice job!

What the hell? Can't see Borg's images as well. What's going on? I know I have my antivirus active.

Pure perfection. The crisp red and the white, on that sexy, slim airframe. Reminds me of my wife. Catch a thermal and fly up to the stratosphere. Lovely.
