All the advice given is good ,take your time but dont necessisarily get locked into one part at a time,, most plans are designed to work a couple of things at a time ,,,
spend what time is needed in the building phase to properly CG the plane saves a lot of time at the field trying to find a way to add weight to the tail or nose.
Remember to have the plane safety checked by the safety officers at the club you fly with, listen to them and make needed ajustments before you fly the plane.
Also if you are a beginner pilot, it's not a bad Idea to have a more experianced pilot maiden the plane for you, make the major trim adjustments and then fly the plane yourself.
