A clear canopy, nose section and top turret are included in the kit.That's always a major step forward. Was the canopy included in the kit?
I wanted to try making my own frames for the cockpit just to see if I could, I liked (still do like) the result but during closing up and sanding of the seams I may have squeezed a little to tight or hit it on something and damaged the very thin and quite weak centre framing as its now broken in thee places and both large side windows have broken away from the glue joints, causing me to rethink and revisit the idea of cleaning up and installing the kit supplied cockpit cover/ windshield.
my own fault for not paying heed, I knew the joint was a weak spot but mishandled it during seam filling and sanding
every failure is a learning experience…so I’m told
