Well, last week I received the Nitroplanes "Zlin EP Electric Brushless Powered Remote Control RC Airplane 90% Built ARF Kit."

The first thing I did was snap some shots of it as I unpacked it so you can get some idea of the kit quality. I was a little surprised that with the exception of the wings, everything else other than the cowl was loosely floating around in plastic bags. The second thing that struck me was that it seemed tiny for something claimed to have 430 sq in of wing. Here's Nitros specs;

Specifications:
Wing Span : 40 in / 1016 mm
Wing Area : 430 sq in / 28 sq.dm
Flying Weight : 45oz / 1300g
Fuselage Length : 31 in / 800 mm

Requirements:
Li - poly : 11.1V ; 1800-2200mah ; Propeller :9"x 6" ;
Out ranner Brushless Motor : 450T Speed ; Control:45AMP.

So I took a few measurements myself and came up with about 255 sq in. Throughout this I was a little concerned about the size of and number of wrinkles in the covering, but I also tried to keep in mind that it is a $69 ARF.
