What's a good first giant scale project?
I am an experienced kit builder, but have never attempted a giant scale project. I was thinking of the Dynaflite Super Decathlon.

RE: What's a good first giant scale project?
I built the Dynaflight SD and agree. It should be a fine first kit. Being big helps, but does add to the complexity. The manual is good though, so follow it carefully and you will be fine. Darn too few kits to choose from these days ... of any size. If you build it, do one thing for yourself - be very careful about weight in the rear. It does tend to be tail-heavy when completed. Also (at least with my earlier kit) there is a minor flaw in the rear former widths. Check and you will note that one or two of them are different between the fuselage plan view and the former detail. Easy to build around by building to the width shown in the plan view.
