I dont have any experience with anything other the the Sig kits that Imentioned before, my close friend built a Goldberg Eagle II and said it was a nice easy build.. when I started with my first plane, the 25, Ihad no experience prior to that build, Ithought it was a nice easy build that required some thought and care like any other kit would, the manual I swear was as thick as a phone book, there wasnt much left to the imagination, they lined everything out quite well. Iam sure that nobody here is gonna steer you wrong with any of their suggestions and you will be happy with whatever approach you take. Me, Ilike the Sigs, but that's because I have two of their trainers and "Somethin Extra". I enjoyed the build and the flights on the trainers immensely, the "Extra" had the engine taken away from it to outfit a friend who needed to get up in the air. I will probably have that one ready to go next season. There is alot of guys here willing to help with ALOTmore experience than I have but when it comes to beginners, Ijust cant help myself. Ilike to share my experience and knowledge with the next guy that wants to get into the hobby.
