Ihave "built" (exaggeration) the Sig Cap - the Sig Sukhoi the H9 232 73"& 1/3 size, the H9 330 and the H9 540 and a lot of the early PILOT ARFS-the first generation Lanier and even back to the Testor's series of control line prefabricated wood models (Freshman- Senior) -So I have developed a bit of a feel for good /bad quality.
I do this to keep up on what is happening with the prefabs--
The new H9232 CAP is as good a flyer and as lightweight as any custom made model in the 1/3 size catagory - and flys as well or better than them also.
I have heard others poo poo em - but they are whistling in the dark! Done right - these are as good as it gets.
Having done TOC contest custom made stuff - (a number of times). I think I understand what is required for a good model and the ARFS are closing in fast.
The lowly 120 size Cap for $200 bucks at the moment is an incredible bargain!
If you have any building skills -you can easily strip covering and redo assemblies as desired - re cover and still be at a very low cost -for a great flyer! Stuff a light 40 Gasser on it and go.
