The plane comes with all control pushrods installed, except for aileron. Aluminum (looks like) tubes for the tail. You can either use two servos for the elevator, or cut the liteply former that holds the three in place in the servo area so that you can put together the two elevator rods. This is what I did, using two wheel collars. The only down side that I have found to the materials included are the wheels which are useless for asphalt-- maybe ok for grass. Be sure to epoxy the ENTIRE engine area as well as the area where the fuel tank goes. With a Pitts muffler, mine balanced on the nose with the battery (1100 M.A. nicad) and receiver behind the fuel tank.

Be VERY careful of excessive throws-- a tiny bit is fine to start.

I think it is the best buy in the ARF market. Good Luck. I flew it today, 4 times, 1/3 to 1/2 throttle and was superb-- tracks like it is on rails.
