Do you really think that the Six shooter is skill 5. It was not that bad to build. Check in rocsim under Attributes (more) for the building notes. If it is level 5 no one will want to build it. I have accurate hand drawn plans if you need them but scanner and digital camera are broken.

Thanks Again and take you time with the six shooter.

I think the design is a bit more complex than a Skill 3, and has at least as much complexity as the Saturn 1B models. Maybe a 5 is high, but I don't think it's any lower than a 4. It's not just the building that rates the higher level, but the operation of the model as well. You have to get some of the pre-flight stuff just right for the model to perform as intended.

Put it this way -- It's most certainly not a beginner's model. You really need some building experience to work on this one. I'm thinking of how the PDF might look if I were to write this one up as a full-blown instruction manual, and how many pages might be required...
