I have 3 planes now (all ARF's) and started my first kit last week. I second the comments on SIG. I am building the Something Extra and found the instructions easy to understand, the balsa is of good quality, and the pieces go together just as designed. The main thing I have to watch is moving too fast. I am taking my time, and re-reading each instruction several times. To me if you want to build a kit this is a great one to start with. Well, I am headed to the garage to finish the sheeting on the top of the wing. Hope to turn the wing over today and start on the bottom. Here is my 1 week progress.
