Mibojets were kind enough to let me record the pre-paint kit assembly of a turnkey A-10 1:5,8 project. The team assembles the airplane kit and tests all the control surfaces, making sure it is in perfect mechanical order before the paintjob by Gottfried Hirscher. Planned date for paintjob is October 2022.
Also included are the "lost tapes" of lamination of the A-10 "Grande" wings, a closer look at VIP molding process.

Special thanks to Jernej, Oskar, Bojan, Janja and Bogo for their cooperation and putting up with my camera in their faces.

Model info from their website (mibojets.com):

MIBOJETS A-10 “WARTHOG” is now available as a 6th generation kit.
In 2017 we made improvements in outline and detail and also engineering improvements to our previous kit. With some new building techniques and a complete redesign of the landing gear and a unique slide out turbine mount we reached our goal where the model can be built within a 20 kg dry weight which qualifies it for entry into the Jet World Masters.
We add scale options like Fowler flap system, new A-10 C version antennas and Decelerons which make our A-10 »Museum Scale« with outstanding flying characteristic even if the model is equipped with a »smaller« 100N range turbines.

A factory building service in different stages is also available on customers demand.
