If you get through a Phaeton 90 as a first build I will be truly impressed! That is not a beginners model to fly and it is a builder's kit to boot. Scant written instructions and no hints on the plans for engine, servos, battery, tank, control rods, etc. I just received mine and am still in the process of sketching out the bashes I want to incorporate and selecting the hardware I'll be putting in her. (PS - so far I am pleased with the die-cutting and quality of the wood supplied).

Tell you what, though. You get a trainer started and I'll try and log my progress for posting to the forum on a build thread and maybe you can learn from my mistakes.
