Miss on body tube
The printed parts were well done, well finished. High quality. The stock body tubes provided were oversized which made a smooth fit impossible! I suggest sourcing tubes that fit or modify your design to “fit the tube” you are sourcing. I tried to go through my inventory of tubes- nothing fit any better! This issue colored my perception of a fine kit. Do all your kits have bad fitting tubes?
Fantastic kit!
Top quality 3D parts. Amazing detail. I am learning 3D printing using ABS... and it takes skill and a sophisticated printer. Boyce Aerospace has the skills! Fun build... but still relearning to "paint." Only Tamiya spray lacquer now!!
Best V-2 fins anywhere
The Builders kit V-2 is very well done. The printed fins make all the difference as they have the details and textures of the real thing. The Builders kits are the best, and I own 3 of them!
First Order from Boyce
My first order was the purchase of the 1/25 scale V2, 1/14th scale Nike-Hercules, 1/17.5 scale Mercury Redstone. and the 1/46th scale Gemini Titan. I also purchased the 1/30th scale Gemini Capsule. The Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) is awesome! The instructions appear concise and complete. Haven't had time to start building due to life getting in the way :) The workmanship is beautiful and I can't wait add these to my fleet. Thanks and as soon as "She Who Must Be Obeyed" is condusive, I already have plans for more kits...
