Hello Paul and welcome to the forum. One of my first models was the Stuart V10 which is not so different from the H10.

They do say that making mistakes is the fastest way to learn, which may be true but it can be heartbreaking if you keep having to make the same parts.

If there is anything specific that you need help with you have but to ask on the forum.

I have always belied if it is not hard it is not worth doing. I used to think I was an OK engineer, now I know I am not. Since I retired and started doing more ME i think I have gone backwards, but every mountain I climb, turns out to be but a foot hill. But by eck the view is grand.
