It's a pity the kit is so bad, and yet the plane is a great flyer.

As to the kit quality, I'm building one now plus have seen two others in the box. The wood in the box from one to the other was pretty much the same, crap. The worst things I found were the spar slots in the ribs were oversized by 1/16"-1/8" and the sheet front fuse sides after joining were undersized to the plan by 1/4". The rest is sticks which were warped every wich way. Also, I took measurments on the plans which were off to much to dismiss as papers natural expansion/contraction to temperature change, plus the lines were to thick to make an accurate tracing of parts. They are probably a copy of a copy of a copy etc....
