I built one. In fact, it is still in my hanger. It was no more difficult to build than any other plane. All parts fit were perfect. I haven't flown it because I have too many planes in my hanger. I want to always have a back up plane for when I "use up" my other planes. Don't hold back. just jump into it. I'm not good at soldering and there is some that has to be done on this kit. It sure looks nice and isn't heavy. Ought to fly very well. Good Luck.
