Hi
I got the model and I must share I'm very pleased with it.
I made some dryfit to check the pannel assembly, and I had no bad surprise
details are subtle and it renders well the composite fuselage
I think that KH made the choice to offer several versions for various markets. This brings to some compromises n the model layout.
In my opinion, we have to respect this, helicopters is not such a big market like spitfires and I'm thanksfull to KH to produce this one.
So why this layout ? it enables to get, starting from the tail : 2 types of tails, composit and metallic, for any Dolphin 2 types of tailbeams, as US Coastguards have an armour on it 2 types of rear cover, as there is also an APU on USCG airframesn
Not shown here, 2 types of turbines outlets, and 2 types of housing behind them, allowing also MH-65C or D or AS-565 N3+ 2 types of doors, plus USCG side 2 types of roof, as USCG roof is also different 3 types of nose windows configurantions (already in the box) Short or long nose
So far, it fits well. You build first the inside, and the outside goes around it
