Default great planes flatout cub or zero

I just was looking at great planes web site. Have any of you tried these new flat outs. I know the first one I built was complicated but the third turmoil flew really good broke so many hinges putting them together. Anyways I noticed the new ones have there flying surfaces taped. I still have equipment for them. I'm just wondering how they fly and are they any easier to assemble. I think I might just order the cub to goof around with.

Hi Zac, I have not tried the 180 size flatouts but just finished building the 370 size cap 580. It was much more difficult to build than I imagined, All these carbon rods etc etc. However the end result looks good and the test flying is today. I opted for the rimfire brushless motor and I do hope it flies like advertised. If you do go for the cub I would be interested to know how easy it was to build. PS I believe you are in the correct forum OR am I wrong ???
