I really need to hone my building skills and step up to a real kit like the ones at Blue Jay. All beautiful planes....alas I'm still at a re-building skill level. I can repair most breaks weather it was a kit or an ARF...maybe this is my winter?
If you can figure out a repair, building won't be much of a problem for you. I'd rather build than repair any day. The old school kits were sometimes some blocks of balsa that you carved away what didn't look like the plane you wanted. Iwas looking at a PDF of the Dirty Bird last nite. lots of carving and howling out to do. Gota build one though, There was a picture of one on a Model Avaition Mag about five years back. Fell in love with it.
