I have two nephews (twins) who are starting to show an interest in flying. Their older brother has already built a Tower Kit and is already flying. I want them to build a kit when they do start. That way when we go out the the field it will mean more to them rather than some thing else they just bought, had awhile, and broke.

Their brother was shaking so bad when we test flew his trainer for the first time I thought he might vomit. I made him build and buy most of the stuff for his plane. "Made" is a strong word, I helped him enough to keep him out of trouble. He did though, actually build the plane.

I figure if they build their own they will have sweat equity in their planes to care about what they are doing. What brought my attention to the two plane is the cost difference. Building the kit has a significant price difference to the ARF.
