Well, I've just concluded my second sailplane purchase from Randy McCleave. Another amazingly positive experience. If you ever have a chance to buy something he's offering, do not hesitate, because if you do, I will probably beat you to it!
Randy is a good builder/assembler of models, and what he offers is the straight truth and nothing but.
In addition to that, he's a genius at packing, and from the evidence at hand, I'm lead to believe he either works at, or owns stock in 3M :-)
The way he packed the ballast kit is marvelous. Within it's own box, and then tucked into a heavily reinforced corner of a larger box (not the same box the wings were in), he then punched holes in the outer box and physically tied the ballast kit into the corner in all three axis's, then taped all the chords and corners so no hint or potential for movement existed.
All the wings and fuses, etc... Were double wrapped in two grades of protection, and then firmly packed in foam, peanuts, and newspaper.
Thanks Randy!
