I owned one, later version, that was very disappointing.
From the start the model has a lot of issues.
The fuse is not symmetrical, at all. From the top view you can see it plain as day. The canards on mine had to be taken out, mounts rebuilt and installed, and their geometry sorted. The wings are different thickness. The servo bay on one wing would not accomodate the servos correctly so that had to be sorted. The gear door kit, well, just make your own. The speed brake kit, same. Took out the rear most bulkhead and replaced it with a stronger well ventilated design. The rudder servo installation was a poor design so we opted for a new better solution. Intake duct kit does not fit the fuse so that had to be modified. Steering servo is buried under the ducts making service impossible so that was custom fitted with a panel. Cockpit kit is sport at best so I hand made my own. The turkey feathers dont exist on this model so I made my own to look more scale. Had to add a vertical fin support inside to distribute the loads better into the upper fuse area, very flimsy as is. The turbine mount was weak so it was redesigned and installed so hard landing could not pop the stock rails off the bulkhead.
Was mine made on Monday? Who knows, I just got fed up with all the surprises and traded it out of pure frustration. Now its well sorted and in good hands.
I cant stand redesigning planes and products that, for money, should be sound and good to go.
I wouldnt own another one.
