I too am looking into buying this outfit from E-Flite. I added up all of the parts individually and the price of $449.00 is a good deal.
I am just a beginner and think this will be a good first plane to learn and reference while I build another larger scale plane like a Piper Club or a Stinson Reliant.
If you do buy this outfit let me know if you like it and if the quality is as good as the photos look.
