These planes are not available yet, but if you like I will show the build steps on the test model.  It takes time to post this stuff, so if you are interested, let me know, and I will keep doing it, if not, I won't..

Looks like three at a time is the most you can do.

Ditto.  Am just completing the CMP DH2 Beaver (electrified).  Have always had a soft spot in my heart for the Beaver.

The parts you have shown so far look pretty good with the detailing. Keep the build going!

I cannot complete the build yet, I am waiting on servos to arrive, but I have done just about everything I can do up to that point.

It has been very easy to put together so far.  The most tedious part has been installing the hinges for the opening doors, but it's not bad, just takes a little care.

The opening doors are the hardest part of the whole build, but they are not that hard. You just need to take a little time to line up the hinges correctly.

The pushrods for the elevators are carbon fiber, I glued the metal ends in with JB Weld.

The wings are really easy, you just need to glue the hinges, install the horns and servos.
