50+AirYears I too like to build but don't have as much time too as I would like, I have 8 flyable planes right now and 4 of them started as a box of wood (kits) I built 3 of them however Goldburg is no longer the quality company it once was. Since Laniar purchased Goldburg there quality and customer servise has become weak at best. In my opinion Hanger 9 makes the best quality ARF'S and have the best hardware with them in comparison to most of the others. Great planes is not too bad either but a few friends have had some issues but only minor ones. If you ever deside to try another ARF take a look at the Hanger 9 planes and it may surprise you on what they are selling as ARF's
