Part 31, which attaches the horizontal stabs to the fuselage, took a little bit of thinking to get it folded up correctly. This is how it turned out for me. Seems like designing it to be two parts, left and right, would have made it more realistic. The part curving up and over the vertical stab just looks odd. The model cover shows a completely different design. The speedbrakes were over-designed, with 12 parts to each side. But they went together without too much trouble. Remember, as they are deployed, they move outward towards the wing tips on top of the wing, and towards the fuselage on the bottom of the wings. The model is pretty much finished, except for the canopy. That will have to wait until I get some plastic for the vacuum former machine.
Next up, the younger sister the the SZD-22, the SZD-12 Mucha.
