Thanks majortom. I have built plenty of kits to date. This would be my first GIANT SCALE kit, however. That is, if you don't count a scratch-built 130" gull-wing glider from an RCM plan called "Borne Free". That bird has a total of 6 wing panels and fuselage built from carved 2"x4" balsa blocks! I'm no master builder, but I think I can tackle the Taylorcraft. :P My problem is that nowadays I have little time to engage a craftsperson-grade building project. I would dearly love to do a Sig or BalsaUSA 1/4 scale Cub or the Bridi Rearwind Speedster, but the Warren truss frame requires time and patience I no longer enjoy. If it ain't lasercut and don't assemble as fast as I can CA, I'd rather BARF, uhhh... I mean ARF.

It saddens me that there are a gazillion gaint scale Extras, CAPs, Giles, and Staudachers, but I can count the number of giant scale floater-type ARF with the teeth on a rugby team captain. H9 has a nice Taylorcraft. but it's Clipwing only, and it comes at the expense of the now discontinued J-3 Cub. Oh well, the Lanier T-craft doesn't sound bad at all. It does sound to be the fastest building and the best designed of the 1/4 Cub types.
