Thank you, for the information. The only other ARFs I have assembled and flown where sold by "Great Planes". They were well engineered and the overall quality was excellent. This ARF is manufactured by "ESM" and leaves alot to be desired. The aircraft in question is there FW 190 and will be my first warbird. There is a build trend under the warbird forum and appears that most of the participents are kit basshers. When I posted this question on the forum I received no advice.
