Well, This is my first post on classic pattern flying and RCU, first, I want to say what a good site you have.
Now for my question, there is a SIG Kobra sitting in the hobby store.(it has been there for a while) i hope i am in the right place for this. so:
1. Is this a rare kit?
2. Is it worth building?
3. How does it fly/go?
BTW: The hobby shop is leaving to another state, and this is my last chance at this kind of plane.
Thanks.

It isn't really a pattern ship, if that means anything to you.
There was a time when having a pattern ship was considered "cool", soooo, the manufacturers began calling any low winged model a pattern ship. The Sig line of low wing models were all dubbed pattern ships by the marketing folks, even though not a single one of them was a true pattern ship. How to spot a pseudo patternship? If the bottom of the rudder is above the horizontal centerline of the wing, it's not really a pattern ship.
I'm not saying that it is a bad sport model. It is good at sport flying. Lots of people enjoyed them over the years. But it doesn't come close to handling like a real pattern ship.
