I like the ingenious construction of the Bachstelze and wanted to build it in my prefered scale. So I was happy to obtain this Pavla kit. Well - I was not happy for too long...

The plastic parts are too coarse and the photo etch often too thin. Detail is limited, to say the least. So bottomline the kit served more or less only as a template for homemade parts.

Quite a few of quick release handles are needed as the Bachstelze could be disassembled fairly quickly.
