This is a great flying plane when properly setup. Yes we all know it is not laser cut but it will go together and make a very pretty plane. The recommended power is going to be a little whimpy. I powered mine with an AF Cobalt 05 ( 6t) w/2-1 belt drive (home made) APC 9-6E and 10 cp2400s. This equals 75-80watts/lb and would rog from grass ( after bending the gear forward to the leading edge) do large loops from level, enough verticle for a slow roll on the up line and impress the dickens out of the glow fliers at the local club field. This was my favorite plane for about 50 flights until a case of dumb thumbs did it in. One of these days I will build another one.
