Default RE: Kit Building for Beginners

Hi,

Good luck with the kit build, I built my second kit of a " Great Planes Super Sportster 40 MkII Kit .40-.46,55" . In fact after I beat that one to death I built another one a few years later. Now that I think about it I built the "60"size, same plane in the building part. but I think the wing loading was better on the 60 size. The second one I put Enya .80 on it with a tuned pipe, boy did it fly. I could roll it 8 inchs and pull the elevater all the way back and watch it climb...........up
Both Sportsters would be a good second plane, first kit.

I had help from a member of the club in the building, it helped a lot and many of the members would loan building tools if needed.
