Is this your first plane? This was my second plane and I love it. I got tired of it's slow can motor so I bought a 50 dollar Himax brushless motor and it's a totally different plane if I put a large enough prop on it I could hover with an 8 cell HEcell 1000mah pack. Make sure you use the GWS glue on the fuselage and other parts that need to give just a little other then that the parts that need to be stiff like the balsa stick so forth. Here is a building tip for the GWS glue. Apply it then put the pieces together then pull them apart. Wait 5 minutes then put the pieces back together and in 30 minutes it's dry not fully cured but good enough to keep buidling. And it's not GWS glue it's contact cement. Anything else I can help with?
