  1. EB410
Hi all, my first proper post so thought I’d share my first build, EB410.2, with some photos thrown in.
I’ve left my esc leads long on purpose in case I want to use it in another build at some point (I can’t be bothered with multiple re-solders on an expensive esc). As I said in my intro, I need to practice my soldering so will do that another time.
I’ve used a few upgrades straight away - alu shock caps and servo horn seems the items everyone says to get. Also got some carbon extras as in the photos.
Tried to take my time with the paint job and kept it simple. I’m fairly happy with the result but had a couple of bleeds. Really liking the anodised blue so will probably use that some more in future.

Thanks. I haven’t built a kit for over 30 years and really enjoyed this.
I tried to “scuff” the wing so it wasn’t transparent, after seeing some YouTube video but made a real mess of that, should have just painted it from the start.
Also made a right hash of ordering lipos that fit. Note to self - don’t order anything else again when drinking. On the plus side I probably have more batteries than a local rc shop does which will come in handy for future projects. Won’t be telling the boss mind.
 
Nice. I’m not sure of what’s needed for airbrushing but if more kit is required think I’ll stick to spray cans at the moment. I doubt I’d get anything else past the boss.
Although I am thinking I need another 1/8th model as I only have a Vorza so the EB or ET would be nice. Or both….
 
Looks really good.
Thanks. I don’t think it shows but I’m really happy with the anodised blue.
Stuffed up the wing but no biggie.
I tried to take my time with the paint job but obviously being a bloke couldn’t. At the moment it’s probably the limit of my skills when painting.
I wished they’d included window surrounds for all of them and not just the sides.
