I have one it flies ok but the kit is kind of cheap, the fuse is a gel coated fiberglass the wings are a combination of wood and foam. The cowling is a painted fiberglass and the wheel pants are fiberglass too. The firewall has a 1/2" piece of plywood glued the back of the firbeglass and should be reinforced with a epoxy/alchohol solution. If using a 2 stroke engine you will really have to cut alot of the cowl to make it fit I used a Saito 50 in mine mounted inverted and I only had to cut a square hole on the bottom to accomadate the cylinder head and a small round hole on the side for the muffler. I also used a remote glow starter and a fuel fill valve to make starting and fueling alot easier. I only see 2 main weaknesses of this kit one being the fuselage I saw a guy nose one in and the fuse broke all the way to the wings it probably could have been repaired but it had all kinds of hair line cracks. The other problem is the tail wheel bracket is kind of weak I would stay away from rough airfields or you will be making many repairs on your tail gear. Flight characteristics are similar to any low wing symmetrical plane aileron rols are pretty fast even with recommended settings loops are nice and inverted flight is pretty flawless, I would expect any 3d flying with the recommended engine size but maybe a larger engine would work I haven't tried hanging mine on the prop. Landings are a little hot and speed must be kept up or a slight droped wing will happen no big deal if you have altitude but on landing it could be disastrous as my friends Chipmunk could show. I really like flying it but on the ground that's where most people will comment how nice it looks very handsome and the covering looks really good, make sure you seal the pinstripe on the cowl with some thin CA or it won't be there for too many flights. I hope this helps and if I could figure out how to post my pics on here I would show you what mine looks like but the pics that have been posted so far are pretty much how mine looks.
