I received my GeeBee. It's a real beauty after 2 coats of Varathane poly. The only negative, so far, is the engine cowel. It is 2 halves with the joint running around the circumference of the cowel. It was factory glued with a 1/16" gap left in it! Pretty ugly. My only choices were to fill the gap and repaint, or place 1/4" red vinyl tape around it. I went with the tape, which is slightly visible. I may eventually match the paint and fill it. There is a left and right landing gear. They are not marked. If the mounting plates don't sit flat, change them to the other wing. If you want to upgrade the wheels, the wheel pants have to be cut apart. Also, it appears the engine cowel must be cut apart to access the motor. It is VERY easy to assemble, however, I'm tricking mine out with scale wires, etc. For once, Dynam included a nice looking scale pilot. All he needs is a mustach and a little color in his face. Doc
