Ordinarily, I tell people that plans-building isn't much different than building a kit. You have to cut out more of the pieces, but it all goes together pretty much the same. The only problem is, Royal kits are a little different. They tend to have a lot of little balsa blocks, all perfectly shaped and sized. No reason you can't cut them out yourself, but it'd help to have a good bench sander to make them nice and square, and I'd bet you'll still end up doing a lot of trial-and-error fitting. Might be worth it, though.
