Fancman:

You are correct their kits are a (little pricey) for the 50cc market. But I think the wing tube is made of a lite weight composite material, and I believe the hardware is of ROCKET CITY type If thats the case then it would make the price a little closer (but still pricey) to the average cost of any completed airplane in that size. Since almost everyone I know replaces the hardware for the ROCKET CITE TYPE QUALITY. Thats just rumor I don't know that to be fact. Also EXTREME told me via e-mail they will be marketing a 50cc size arf-- ULTIMATE-- this fall! let's hope thats true, because I WANT ONE!!!!!!.

AJT ;^)
