Great job everyone! Just what I have been waiting for
I am not at home much at the moment but if I can be of any help, please let me know (PM or email probably best). BTW, to be hypercritical, I think the auxiliary fins on the tailplane should have a slight taper; ie: less chord at the tips than at the tailplane.
Thanks for an excellent model. It's the only way I will get to fly an R1 in the latest colour scheme!

Brian

Big fan of the mighty hunter and about time we had one of those !!!!!
Had a 5 hour flight years ago when I was at ATC on XV249 from St Mawgen. This Nimrod was later converted to R1 spec after one of the original R1's crashed up Scotland.
Just a comment... Something not quite right with the rudder. Think it needs a bit more slope on it. Might just be my eyes and old head !!!!
Looks great to me and can't wait to fly her.
