Looks like we now have all the parts to kit some Nell's.
Yeah the instructions came with the kit but not the parts.
You'll need 3/8" dowel (about 4 x 4' lengths), HD cardstock, 0.050-0.075" wire and a length of BT-55 airframe. Build the bottom frame first so you have something to sit the legs in.
I used heatshrink and epoxy on the bent bits as well as to hold the wire guides at the top.
Oh and the main kit has a piece of electrical wire to simulate a tube at the bottom but doesn't really take or hold the shape needed. Ditch this and use a bit of 3/16" PVC tube from a hobby shop. Heat and bend to the required shape.
You also need some corrugated cardboard to make the jigs seen in the first photo.
Cheers and have fun!
I just finished building Nell with the pad and would like to make more including the other Goddard kit that Flis Kit was sellingLet me see if we have all the parts to kit a Nell.
Nice buildYes, the Borealis and Tesla models are gorgeous and fly quite well. Always an ooooo or an aahh at launch.

Um, they have a website and have been selling kits for several months now:Any updates on the website going active &/or kit availability?
Hmmmm. That website should be down.
We are updating the available kits this weekend as we bring more kits back online
If you like the Frick 'n Frack, you might also like it's little brother the Trifecta (assuming they bring it back). Mini engine powered three stager.Speaking of FlisKits being back, here's the Frick 'n Frack I picked up at URRF, I finally started on it last weekend, working on paint now.
Hoping Nell gets back in the offerings.Hmmmm. That website should be down.

WE HAVE BEEN RE RELEASING NEW KITS REGULARLY. CHECK OUT OUR WEBSITE
So here's the latest. We couldn't wait any longer to get the new website up and running, so we have a bare bones version at www.fliskits.com. Not all the kits are listed, nor are the educational series. We are working hard to get everything up and running. If you want something that is not listed, please drop us a note on the website and we will do our best to fulfill. We have many more kits available than are listed, so we are having the website updated regularly.
Thank you for your patience as we continue to ramp the company back up.
