Yippee! What the postman brought

The Postman brought me this nice Flap ship Spektrum IX20 Transmitter with case. I now have over 25 planes in it. Love the OTF function it has to adjust items such as dual rates, Expo, differential knife edge mixing, while in flight and more also like the My list function I can program for each plane. This transmitter is great.

Started collecting items for the next build, 30% Hostetler Chipmunk. Picked up the National Balsa Kit last season from a fellow flier. The graphics are from Kirby Graphics, real nice. Already had the plans, bought those in Toledo a few years ago. The Cowl, Canopy and Pants are on order from National Balsa. Thinking of using Robart 5/8" Robo Struts for the landing gear. Power?, plans show a DA 120.

I have looked at this plane several times. I was just about to buy a kit from National Balsa at JoeNall a couple of years ago. He also had the one that is one size larger their that he had built it was absolutely gorgeous. At the time one of the old timers from my area that was at JoeNall told me not to do it because the planes from Hostetler were very difficult to work from and did not fit together. Is this true or was I misled.
