    GUILLOWS -Douglas SBD-3 Dauntless Balsa Airplane...

    Posted by Robert Infante on Sep 5th 2024

    Wow, 5 Stars! First, the package arrived quick in excellent condition. Great, but so much sweeter when adding the price that beat everyone by almost 40 percent. I am so impressed with the features, instructions and materials. The laser cut parts will make this more enjoyable to build but tedious nevertheless. Another observation; looking at the plans in front of me, a wingspan just over 31 inches is a lot of plane for this model. Those of us inclined can perform an successful rc conversion and/or dedicate 250 - 300 hours and end up with a museum quality piece. This is definitely worth every cent spent. I am looking forward to completing this build for my grand children. This is one of four to be built, each a different warbird. Thank-you Guillows and thank-you Oakridge Hobbies for stocking such a wide variety of items at great price points. You have definitely gained a lifetime customer with myself and I will be passing your name along as a reference to others. Respectfully, R. G. Infante Jr. LCDR, USN, Ret
