Default RE: Need Help

The electric jets forum is pretty slow, especially considering that it's a holiday weekend. Besides, you only gave it 12 hours... It could take 2-3 days before someone responds, especially considering that it's a holiday weekend.

Generally speaking, ARFs span the entire spectrum, from easy to extremely difficult to assemble. Ease of assembly also depends on how much experience you have, how much general airplane knowledge you have, and how mechanically inclined you are.

If your entire experience is only with RTF planes, I wouldn't recommend jumping straight to a jet. Part of my reasoning is the quantum leap in building skill required compared to a charge-n-fly RTF, and part is the quantum leap in flying performance. It'd be like going straight from a tricycle to a Harley V-Rod...
