I have one sitting its box waiting it's turn to be built. I took a quick peak and the quality is outstanding. I'm going to weather it as shown on the Horizon Hobby website, no WW1 plane should be shiny. I"m also going to go with a heavier motor to offset the nose weight needed for balance. Eflite kept this pretty scale so I can understand the needed nose weight. The full scale Albatros had a 700lb motor in the nose. Also by going with a larger motor I'll be able to swing a 15" - 16" prop which is close to scale, the Albatros had a 9' - 9.5' prop.
