Beef with Vans
That is something i just cant wrap my head around with Vans. Great kits, great planes....but...how hard is it to have someone update, ammend the drawings and words. I have so many times where the plans call out a part that i cant find...i can find a 70? but not a 60?. Or how about the flap motor set up. Special instructions come in the bag...BUT, those are for the old rv6? How about the tip up strut package. It comes with a picture of who knows what, and a hand drawn not to scale piece of paper that you have to laugh at (my 6 year old could draw better!). The instructions again, for a 6, and the hand drawn blue print says "does not have to be this thick"? The written page is for a 6, i am building a 9. The issue is that you waste a pile of time, and it seems SO easy to just ammend the plans. I love learning, but i think if they spend 5 hours a plane model each year updating or ammending the issues....they wouldnt keep having builders call support and get frustrated. Ok, better now, back to the build.
