YOOHOO!
I just got my first Edmonds kit, the Deltie Airshow, from JonRocket.com . At $18.95, it's a bit of an expensive kit, but first impression are key. Edmonds makes an EXCELLENT first impression. From the really cool graphic on the facecard to the fully illustrated and personal instructions, by which it seems that Rob Edmonds is standing right there talking to you, he make a great impression.
The kit includes a length of BT-20 for the boost pod, a balsa NC, Kevlar cord, screw eye, and a metallic blue Mylar streamer, and a small length of angle for marking the tubes with! Sweet! For the Deltie's, there is a small sheet of laser-cut 1/4" balsa for the pods, and 6 sheets of 1/16" balsa with many laser-cut patterns to glue together to make the Deltie's.
For a first impression basis, I give this Edmonds kit a 4.75/5.
Time to go build. Pix along the way.
