I have accrued a fair stash of Pegasus kits, but before starting any I'd like to know if anyone out there has any experience of these little 1/72 scale gems - in particular the strut material supplied in the kit - is it REALLY stiff enough to support the wings and stay straight?? It certainly doesn't look as though it would.... would plastic card do a better job?

Thanks,

Ian

Ian; Assuming you mean the extruded plastic strips included in later kits,(earlier kits had white metal struts)I don't trust it. Plastic card might be OK,but brass,while not nearly as easy to work with,is much better,IMHO. Aeroclub used to sell assorted thin airfoil shaped brass,but K&S and others have some fine flat strip that will also work. HTH
