I had the Kadet Jr. and it flew WONDERFULLY. It is the bird I was trained on. I regret not fixing it now. Just stripped it and put the gear in a Sonic Low Wing. GRRRRR. Like the Sonic alot but wish I'd have fixed the Kadet. (guess I was in a lazy state at the time) Built mine from a kit and flew it with .25 FX from OS and it was great. Id buy another in a heartbeat if I could find one. Maybe I should look at the LT .25 also. If the lt .25 is anything like the Kadet Jr. should build VERY easily and fly great. I think the Kadet line is one of the best out there. Have the MK II and Lt 40 arf all fly GREAT. BTW the MK II is the best IMHO
