    This KK Ladybird series certainly is inspiring me. My kit, same as the one featured, has gone from a part completed but broken box of bits in the shed to an up and going project. Telling me where to get the plan (outerzone) which I was missing was a particular good help to gettimg started

    Shop class for me was 65 years ago, but a lot of what was learned has been useful. I enjoy watching though no longer build or fly. I love that your teachers name was Ellis.

    Good demo Mark, I only recently soldered the tank for my Matador, the oOd skills are the best now I know how I should have done it 👍🙂

    Remains me of when I was 12 years old and soldered my first fuel tank, not so good looking but it worked. Your video inspires me to make a go too make a new one for my cl plane 🙂

      Why not its not that difficult, just clean and flux the joints and use an iron that is big enough (this one could have been a little bigger).

    I have a choice of two Mills 1.3 engines that could go into it but a bit of throttle control would be nice too. I'm also thinking of finishing it as a purely free flight model with the option of hacking some rc into it later.
    The fin was a bit of a fiddle wasn't it? I'll be at the tailplanes next. Reckon I'll keep them "all moving", as per the design.
    Thanks for your great work and sharing.

      Great to see that you have been inspired to revitalise your kit. Likewise you have inspired me to push on with the build too easy to get distracted.

    You can see how old and battered mine is in places. I started it in 1993 😂
