Hi LXbuilder and welcome to the forum. Just a quick note just in case you are not aware, the current ARF version as all the previous ARF versions come with large barn door ailerons and a reduced dihedral. It also is a taildragger and it of course a superb trainer just like all the versions in the past.

Now before others start throwing rocks at me for even suggesting an ARF over a Kit, Please allow me to explain that for those who do not possess flying skills but want to build most are more successful if they start flying almost immediately with an ARF while at the same time building a kit of some sort.

Now while any of the Cadets are a pretty straight forward project simple projects and a good builder can whip one out in even weeks. However if one is also a new builder then that is definitely not the normal time frame. It is quite the normal for a completion to take over six months or even a full year. By this time many are bored and move on but by flying from the start that motivation for the building is often not lost.
