I don't think the kits have changed any. The landing gear is probably still the weakest point. However, I don't reinforce mine any more mostly because I'm a better lander. This plane will land so lightly it isn't even funny. I'm just careful when I land it. But when you do break it out...that's the time to reinforce it.

I think you'll have a great time with this plane. Any questions...ask away. There isn't a better group of people in RC than right here on the ol' UCD thread.

Stick around long enough and you might even hear a story or two.

Thanks
