Regarding the radio... rechargable battery packs included? The trim switches? The whole fact that it's computerized? Damn! Radios have come a long way since I was last into RCs. My last radio had long trim sliders for each axis and took a grip of AAs that you had to pull out to recharge.
My plane kit should show up early next week... gonna document my build in a thread. Can't wait!!
