So it's cold here. ....really cold. That being said, all flying occurring here is indoors. I won an f3p plane at my club's fly in this past fall and I decided to build it. Here goes.
Here is a link to the plane.

It is discontinued but seeing how precision flying helps 3d flying, thought I'd start a conversion on indoor precision.
Here you can see there is a low parts count. This build should go quick.
The manual is very well written and says that the packaging bags can be used to prevent gluing the model to the table. the first step is to attach the tail section to the main horizontal fuse section. I lined up the center slots with a straight edge and glued using foam safe CA and foam safe kicker.
It is important to keep everything flat during this step.
At this point it was time to slide the horizontal fuse through the vertical fuse. This step requires a gentle hand and some patience. It is not an easy task but gently working it into place was successful.
The next step was to glue on the foam sub-firewall and begin gluing the vertical and horizontal fuse sections together. I began at the nose, the firewall was slotted, and worked from there using a right angle and gluing small sections at a time.
