Speaking of building, hats off to Dennis Gergits at Carden Aircraft. When I called to inquire about their 30% CAP 232 kit a while ago, he questioned me upfront on my building experience with large scale planes. Why? Because even if you have had experience building the smaller planes (which in general undergo less stresses in flight) building the larger planes requires much more attention to detail and care regarding gluing techniques, reinforcements in certain key areas, etc. So he wasn't just interested in selling me a plane without regard to safety concerns (as some companies would be). He very well understands that a large plane not very well put together could be a safety hazard, and that it would be bad for his buisiness if a lot of his planes were flying around poorly built. So he emphasized if I wanted to take on that project to be sure and get help from an experienced builder (preferably someone who had experience building his planes).
