In the kit building thread the are I believe two topic's going on what you "need" to build. I believe one of the posts has the pictures and or his wish list from tower there so you can see what all that stuff looks like.
Good luck on your first build. I just (almost) finished a Great Plane 20 size cub as my first build, easier than I had scared myself to believe and had a ton of fun. I am starting on a TF mustang 1/7 scale shortly, can't wait. One word of caution though, as it is happening to me and other's that i have read. Now I can't stop want to build more more more!!!!![X(]
