Peppy plane that's a blast to fly. VERY strong structure. Build is pretty straight-forward (carving the cowl is a little different from most kits) and covering is more difficult than some with the odd angles - especially if you build the optional wingtips.




Honestly, probably not a good first kit but it could be, I suppose, if you take your time and bring questions here ASAP for assistance. This forum is like having an engineering consultation service on call. The wing is very simple and the fuselage is easy to build square and true. Probably not a good choice for a first or trainer airplane unless you have a good instructor with a buddy box. You have to bleed speed and the apron flap is a bit much to expect a learner to remember and work with; and coming in steep can be hard on the landing gear (and backing blocks). Instant one-way retracts.

Love the plane, though. Looking back I would not have done the upswept wing tips.
