Kingtech JMB jets 3m PC-21?
Built up wood/film construction, TP motor mount, 2 piece wings, 2 piece fuselage, bigger than Skymaster PC-21?

Does anyone know who builds it or anything else about it?

Nice takeoff and landing speeds, they state 9kg RTF, about half the weight of a Skymaster PC21 but the same size.

I have just started assembling mine and wondered if anyone has a photo of the underneath showing where the horns should be fitted to make sure they fix to hard points in the aileron and flap?
Thank you

Another thing....I was planning on keeping the wing in two halves, has anyone else done that?

Thanks, I think I’ll paint the inside of the fuselage green as well.
I made up all of the supplied linkages and fitted the servos to the mounts leaving little choice of where to fit the horns. One of the screws holding the flap horn on nearest the hinge needs to be replaced with a longer one.

When doing the second wing I wasn’t as lucky and the flap was hollow where I needed to fit the horn.
To get around this I made a hole in the centre and filled the area with hysol before reassembling.

I would recommend checking for slip in the control rods. A couple of my control rod end could slip off the rod with little force. This proved to be because the rods are varied in thickness and some too thin for use.
I have replaced all of the rods with M3 studding.

Kingtech 60 TP offered into the model and a Sebart Avanti combined kero and smoke tank placed on the CG. Now to decide whether to remove the canopy to switch on and refuel or put them on the 
outside.

Nice job Neil - looking forward to seeing it at the field. If your OCD can't handle the exhaust angles I'm pretty sure you could fix it with a hammer 
Or have a whack at cutting them to angle like the full size. Funnily enough I'm spending the day at the Pilatus factory tomorrow if you need any close up shots.

I hadn’t really thought about the heat issue as the turbine itself is further back in the nose. I’ll have a think and maybe just monitor it when I first run it up.
