Default RE: How the heck do I build this thing?

I have a Mini Magic Extra ARF. From what I can remember, it went together like most other ARFs. Is this your first ARF build? If so, this is not a beginner airplane. If you have specific questions about the assembly, I can try to answer them (I assembled mine a couple of years ago). From what I remember, the control rods were junk, I bent my own out of music wire. The engine mount sucked too, I used my own. I actually mounted an OS .25 FX on mine, it's a real screamer, but have to limit flights to 5 mins due to the tiny fuel tank. Not much room to put in a larger tank either. The photo below is before I shoehorned the cowl on over the .25.
