Basically Colin the mig is a giant airfix kit where every part needs some fine fettling, and in a lot of cases painting, so it's nothing like the ARTF's most people are used to and therefore very time consuming and the build hours soon go into 100's. Next job is to install the air system's for retracts and brakes and hook up to the various rams etc. Next will be to install the rest of the servos and make up the servo leads and to the correct length and hand crimp the plug and sockets. Re- install the turbine, fit the bubble trap and connect up the fuel lines. Finally I will go through my work checking everything and when happy hand it back to John.

The trick is to make sure you have a debonder/solvent like isopropyl alcohol to hand at all times.
