I have not yet fitted the tall pole mast extensions above the tripods as this would complicate storage of the model. However, I have drilled the holes ready and that's got the nerve-wracking bit of the job out of the way!
I'm very pleased with this model and consider it's very good value for money. I've tried to relate the cost of it to the cost of Eagle kits back in the 1960s taking into account the inflation that has taken place since then. Unfortunately my arithmetic is not up to the job to get an accurate comparison, but my best guess is that the cost is not that much greater.
I'll be posting some more shots on the 1250 FBG site later.
