You’ve been waiting a long time.\u00a0 I have finalized the Caudron C.460 Short Kit.\u00a0 This is a 24″ span kit of the 1936 National Air Races Greve and Thompson Race Champion.\u00a0 In FAC competition, it qualifies for FAC Scale and the Greve Races.<\/p>\n

This kit has been a complex project.\u00a0 It comes with a 36″x13″ rolled plan, 6 sheets of laser-cut balsa (one 3\/32″ sheet, two 1\/8″ sheets, and three 1\/16″ sheets – over 30 minutes of laser cutting time per kit), and two pieces of aluminum tape to replicate the two radiators.\u00a0 In addition, I have created some optional items:\u00a0 a vacu-formed canopy and a 3D-printed nose block (with Gizmo Geezer Nose Button).\u00a0 You will be able to choose your options (one or the other – or both) when you select the kit for purchase.<\/p>\n

Here are some other products I am releasing today:<\/p>\n

BALSA<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t sell balsa – until now.\u00a0 I have been getting so much “heavy” (12-20#) balsa that I decided to try to re-coup some of my losses.\u00a0 This is too heavy for my kits, and I have been giving it away locally, but I can provide it to you for a good price, if you can use this heavier stock.<\/p>\n

I am selling 1\/16″ sheet and 1\/8″ sheet in 18″ lengths for the price of 10- 18″ sheets for $5 and $10.\u00a0 That is LESS THAN my cost.<\/p>\n

3D Nose Blocks – with Gizmo Geezer Nose Buttons<\/p>\n

I’ve made these for MY models and have tested them.\u00a0 They work.\u00a0 They are designed to with the following features:<\/p>\n
