I'm going to have to agree with everybody above. Nitromodels has a reputation of having REALLY bad instruction manuals. Between you and your grandpa you should be able to get through the build ok. Although your best bet is to spend the little extra money and get a plane with a decent manual. Not only will a good manual help you on that plane but it will also help you in future models. Most "name" brands offer quite a few tips in their instruction manual that can really help a newbie in the build.
