I just finished a Kangke CAP 232/60 bought straight from Kangke at this year's WRAM show, and had to replace most of the hardware. It seems this was an older kit. All clevises and control horns had to be replaced. Either the material was weak or the items were not quality grade. All clevises had to go, as well as the control horns. Wing holddown bolts and blind nuts had to be thrown out. I wound up drilling the holes and plugging them with wood dowel, then tapping the new holes and replacing the screws with stronger bolts. It have serious doubts that the bolts supplied would have held the wing in place doing anything wilder thant straight and level flight.

The decals supplied were substandard and not opaque enough. Both wheels were unusable as they were totally out of true and wobbled badly when rotated. Covering was very good, however and the paint job on the fiberglass cowl was magnificent. However, the molded ABS Plastic wheel pants totally detract from the looks of an otherwise beautiful airplane. The supplied adjustable engine mount was quite adequate and made engine installation very easy. The written instructions were hapharzardly written, actually just a very fuzzy photocopy of the originals and photos were almost worthless. Building this ARF will tax your ingenuity, however, with the proper tools and good hardware, it will go together fairly quickly. The end result, save the hideous plastic wheel pants, is worth the effort. I wonder if there are any aftermarket fiberglass wheel pants available out there.
