Congrats on grabbing one, hopefully it will be better than the MAS-15, which I'm currently building

Btw, I wanna ask, how do I use those photoetch parts? I try searching but can't find any from the web
Do I just remove them and use some double side tape to apply them?

cement or glue it bro...
just a very small drop of glue already enough

I dont think Cement will work but CA Glue or superglue is the most commonly used glue since it can adhere plastic and metal.

use tootpick or any thinner pointed product as applicator since you dont want excess glue around the PE part. If the PE parts is near on clear plastic, you have the risk on fogging it so apply more carefully

here are a couple of page from the web

seamline appear in the wing pack too...no matter how hard u press the polycap...the seamline still there.
gapline become bigger or pop out when u extend the wing.

if u planing to paint i, paint it 1st bfore assembly..bcos once u snap it..it was very hard to pull out..or maybe damage the peg.

Not a problem, these are common batteries for electronics. Even if you somehow couldn't find them in Jalan Pasar, Ebay/Taobao/Aliexpress is your friend.

better late than never, I got the DM Destiny. The box is indeed really big though similar to their strike box, it should have been smaller since the parts inside keeps on moving though the good points is that it is at least protected by two box.

Cant wait to build it on March tongue.gif
