i have one that i am just finishing up i put a raptor50 in it and can tell you that it is a really tight fit for the muffler. i got a scale century muffler and it just fits inside.

i built mine with all intentions of putting a hawk in it but it got so heavy with all the mods to convert it from an "A" model as it comes in the kit, to the "D" model (longbow). the scale cockpit, moving cannon and tads, as well as the fcr mounted on top required me using my xcell 60 which fitted great. as for the muffler, thank got the D model's larger fabs are big enough to house the side mounted muffler unlike those of the "A" model.

those are pretty much the visible differences. the air data sensors are on top of the engine nacelles and the nav and strobe lights are also mounted to the nacelles but at the sides. thats all i did.
