I used to see kits like that in hobby stores but was never brave enough to try one. I always fell for the big name brands. Who knows, some of those off beat kits could have been pretty good?

I would not hesitate to build one of Ted's kits, but if you are going to use more power than it was designed for, pay close attention to the wing construction. It doesn't leave much margin for extra load, so you may want to strengthen the spars. The original was a Flying Models construction article, later kitted by the designer. Here's one that showed up at a VRCS meet. Jim
