Starting to build an AMW RED FiberMAX Kit - with head end dual deploy for a recently retired friend.
Considering I have built nothing but head end dual deploy kits for the last couple years, this should not be a departure from a typical build. The kit was ordered complete with avionics bay plates and a switch band for head end dual deploy. The fins slots on the kit are not stellar and will need to be hand flied a bit. Not a huge deal, just needs a little finesse work on my part.
I started with the nose cone adding a 38mm fiberglass coupler bulkhead plate and scuffing the inside of the nose cone. Since this kit does not have a removable tip, gluing in something permanent (but light) was in order.
More to come
