Default Quality Control????

My wing saddle fit was awful. They should of checked it against a template before it left the factory. Had to add a lot of wood in the front half of it just to close up the gap (fear the wing would seperate from the fuse because the only place it touched was the wooden piece that locates the front part of the wing. Also, the wood will crack were it is butt jointed together, run CA along the joints that are accessable. When they broke in the rear of the fuse, I opened it up and put a doubler on both sides. It's a decent flying plane, but since it was my first ARF (after 8 years of building), I would look around a little more before buying something again.

Good luck,
Jon
