Zoot,

Not sure if you were asking anyone in particular, but this was my second plane and first ARF. My first plane was an RTF. To be honest, it took me longer to put together than I care to admit [:-] I did mine over two weekends and put in a lot of hours. It really does go together easy. Before I started mine, I was reading stories about people putting theirs together in a few hours. I kind of got my hopes up after reading those stories, but I had a learning curve to get over, atleast that's what I'm telling myself But the plane flies great, even after repairing a torn out landing gear a couple of times, so I guess all's well that ends well.

So if you have any experience putting ARFs together at all, I think you could get this done pretty quick. If you're like me and maybe a little slow, then there's no shame in taking your time and building it over several days.
