I have the 7mm version of the EM1 and in general its a good kit
Its rather complicated and the instructions are dire Im still confused as to what some of the parts are and I handled a finnished model at Warley! Apart from that its gone together quiete well other than some ill fitting windscreens.
Reccomended if you dont mind doing a bit of extra work and are fairly experienced.
I imagine the 2mm version will be rather simpler. Does it use ready to run pantographs I am having nightmares about fabricating them in 7mm let alone 2!

Just thought: I added the 2mm kits to the EM1 & EM2 pages, but forgot to add the existing 4mm and 7mm ones! D'oh!
