Mine is here. Finally.
A couple things right out of the box I wondered about.. The sky light is a decal. My Monocote was all drum tight. Holes for Engine install are marked but not drilled.also it includes real henges, and the surfaces are drilled. YES.

I have gone through the whole online manual twice. I am aware of the sky light decal and I am not too crazy about having to glue the cowling ring myself, but still I just clicked on "Place Order..." This is insane!

I had to move the electric starter motor on the Onboard starter because it interfered with the cowl. on the top. I had to grind off the upper corner on that mount.
now the motor can be mounted Correctly and the Exhaust will exit the cowl correctly.
the shot with the cowl shows where the electric motor rubbed the top of the cowl. the other 2 pix shows the silver mount part I made to move it down.
