Do you think this kit will be alright for a third time builder? Last time I built something was probably 8 years ago or so..

If you have patient I think that almost anyone could build this plane. And of course with all the good help here on RCU anyone should have a nice plane.

Paul, if that 182 was your first REAL build I'd sure like to see the "make-believe" ones!!!!

Hi, Mini! Going to follow along with you if on this build if you don't mind. Real nice start you have going there.

Soft landings.

Sorry for such the long time between updates, I had a hurricane and then the swarm of mosquitos that followed after due to the standing water that made it a little hard to get to my shop. Anyway we now have a rudder, its technically not finished because my sander broke in the process of building it so there's no swoosh, as I call it, on the rudder yet. I hope to start on the fuse sometime this week.

Okay I just noticed something, my sig. has a typo in it. I tried to fixed it, but it won't save the change, even if I press ok or apply. Any ideas?

Okay heres an update for those who are still looking, aka no one lol, my dad has taken over the project. I have no clue when it will be done with him working on it. I still plan on scaling it out once he finishes the airframe.
