RE: Is this a good plane for a beginner?
Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun with that project. Unfortunately I really don't have time to build and have had to take a month or so to build an ARF due to my work schedule. My neighbor has built from kits for years and has some really nice looking planes. We also have a lot of guys in our club that scratch build. My hat is off to them. Some of the things they turn out are amazing. As for Ken and the other guys on here, you're right, their expertise and experience is priceless. I only wish I had known about RCU when I started. I could have saved a lot of time and money on electric junk that never really flew. LOL
