Default RE: Beginner kit...no experience

Building can have its own rewards. I don't fly well but I do build well. So I have a friend who is the best pilot I have ever seen fly my creations for me the first time. A couple weeks ago we took a 4 * 40 that I built several years ago to the field. It has an old HP .40 in the nose and it was a little rocket. It required absolutely no trimming to fly well. Now, that was a real rush. I am currently looking for a four stroke engine to put on a plane that I bought off Ebay a couple years ago. It is called a Laser 3D, produced by a Belgian company that I had never heard of. I bought it because a picture of it caught my eye and it was cheap. It turned out to be an all laser cut kit with good instructions. Probably the easiest to build that I have done in years and it turned into a beautiful craft. It needs a four stroke on the front. Below are a couple pictures of it. The point is that building can be very rewarding all on its own.
