Hmmm... this made it all the way through assembly and putty-up with out any notes.

Assembly was something of a challenge on this kit since the nacelle-aft pylon angle was off so when the nacelles were attached, the pylons were about 1/2" off where they would connect to the deflector assembly. I ended up removing the pylons from the nacelles, drilling out the mating surfaces, inserting 1/16" aluminum pins, and re-attaching them so that the pylons would fit better to the deflector assembly. The aft-topside of the saucer & bottom of the deflector had a lot of orange-peel texture, so those areas got a coat of thinned green putty.
