Hi CGRetired
I do not have experience with this kit, but I designed, built, and currently fly my own Flying Lawnmower. You can see it at

It is a ball to fly and a great crowd pleaser. It is built from CoroPlast, which is similar to the corrugated cardboard boxes are made of, except it is plastic. Very durable. I let club members fly my mower on a trainer cord. All have done well so far, but I do all of the takeoffs and landings.
