I've been looking for a second Biplane, I have the/ HorizonParkzone S.E. 5a, , a CL find a few months ago, mint, not or never flown, just hung on the ceiling, dusted up but it cleaned up well, even the stock prop.
I was looking for the Abatros to partner up with itbut gave up on that after viewing s few video's from Ytube,
Anyway I decided to try and hunt down an E-Flight PT-17 but found none for sale so far, so I settled on another option, rare from what I can tell, the Unique Models pt-17 in Army colors, blue & yellow
.
Didn't want the Dynam kit, not enough attention to detail parts, and the kit has some common production issues, then I stumbled across the video again, 870 fuselage number and on Aliexpress I found the same fuselage number and the same attention to detail in the kit, it has a weak rudder foam hinge but the manufacturer supplied hinges and indents in the foam for installation so my best guess is that it was intended to have the hinges installed by the hobbyist and the tail section was molded as one piece so the paint could be applied true to each surface.
It's been confirmed payment received and waiting on the shipped confirmation email, could take up to a month but I think it will be worth the wait, just looking for any input from members here on the pros or cons of the kit.
