The plane fly's real easy however I did crash it due to loss of battery power. I had another one just like it still in the box. I put it together last night and it was pretty simple. Allen wrenches, screw drivers, razor blade, scissor, pencil, tape measure, 175 reading glasses, you'll need some kind of a small saw (a hack saw blade would work good), drill, & a few small bits. I have to get some glue and eproxy today.
