The kit is designed very well and builds fairly easly, but is not a beginners kit. We glassed the foam wings. Kit has very good wing & stab plug in features for easy transport. Built one for my friend 12 years ago. Only change we made was to mount aliron servos into the wings, did not use torque tubes, except at stabs and flaps.
Very-Very good flying plane. Tracks striaght, takes off easy (get airspeed up) Does not like three point landings, must bring it in on wheels. Likes firm ground. Do not land on rough fields or wet-soft fields, plane tends to nose over easy on this type of field. Very durable aircraft. A 50cc engine is plenty, any thing else is overkill. We have a tried and faithful quadra 52 on this one. Only weakness in kit is the retracts. Gear covers are a week design, mess up easy. Make sure you have the brass retract cylinders for air up and air down. Can get these from iron bay. Dont waste time with old style plastic air up only cylinders.
We detailed this one out, full cockpit, pilot etc. (not Byron's cockpit, it looks cheap). My friend has won several area trophies with it.
Hope this helps
