Search "Elder" and find a thread "opinions....."
No one responded with first-hand experience with the Gold Edition kit.

I built an Elder in 1989 powered it with a 4s .61. Great flier slows to a walk. I don't know about the newer version but on the one I built it was a little difficult to build the aft fuselage but manageable. I would recommend this plane to anyone that likes the scale looks and a slow flyer
