I’m new at building planes other then a Sig Kadet”?” I built in the 80’s! It’s tough to catch up with all the new technology let alone find out about a 70 some year old plane kit, so I appreciate the help, Thanks! There were no instructions with the kit other then the building plans. I didn’t even think of it not being RC, the plans are showing batteries and electronics with a timer of some sort? I tried to Google the kit without finding much information; I never thought to look up the designer. Sal Taibi was a talented and interesting guy with 70 years experience! I may just keep the plane the way it is to display in my workshop someday. I already have a RTF Avistar 40 waiting for me to learn to fly, a Great Planes PT-40 along with a Sig Kadet LT-40 kit I didn’t even open yet. These should keep me busy a long time so I’m really not looking for another one to put together.
