Was flying mine yesterday, plenty power with a 91 fs, highly recommend this set up.
Built mine stock, but with the two aileron servo modificaion that should come with a new kit. Instructions where spot on with no hidden issues that I can think of except that if you are going with the two aileron servo mod it would be a good idea to read the extra page of instruction supplied and mark the point of deviation in the original build manual.
The fuel tank is built into the fuse and is inexcessable, some make a tank hatch for future plumbing repairs also I have heard it is good to have the landing gear a half inch forward to stop nose overs on the ground, although a bit squirly on take off I have not had any issues with nose overs with the landing gear at the factory position.
Fun plane and has a nice presence in the air, enjoy
They are great flying planes. Had one years back and just built another 2 years ago. Although I was satisfied with the original using an OS .91 FS I put a Saito 1.00 in the new one and it's a perfect combo (up here at 5400' elevation). Checked my notes on both builds and didn't see much as far as problems or signigicant mods. But like any bipe, pay close attention to alignment and incidences. Flying off paved runways I've never had a problem with noseovers.
