Pretty much out-of-box, and one of the easiest biplanes I've ever had the pleasure of building. Everything fits and aligns perfectly, the kit's engineering is so good.

Is the rigging and antenna EZ line?
And what the heck is that cross brace thingy on the wing rig and how did you get it there?
Top notch build . I wish they had made a 1/72 version .
Thanks for the kind words guys, and the nice welcome to the forum :drinks

Thanks ausf. The main rigging is done with .005” stainless steel wire, blackened with a marker. The aerial wire, which needed to be finer, is stretched sprue. So are the cross braces, which are attached to the rigging with Future. Getting them in place was... interesting.

Me too, Christian, a Fine Molds 1/72 version would be amazing. However ICM do one in the smaller scale, it's a fairly recent release too so it should be quite nice
After a bit of research, it appears that usk/released the same kit and latter on ICM made their own mold for the KI-10 and then passed it on to Hasegawa.
Sad to say but none come with spats
Ok I tried a Biplane ... ( My Bird of Choice ) Once ... it was a old matchbox kit ... the struts were flimsy and the top wing kept falling off still in a pile on the bench ... could be why I stopped working on it ...
Now Yours inspires me to get back to it ... there aren't enough words in the Dictionary to describe this build ....
