Default RE: US40+ copy is pretty nice

Well putting this thing together kind of amazed me, Everything fit perfectly, Pushed out the metric blind nut to put in 1/4-20 and I had a heck of a time...Actual epoxy was used in the construction, and signs of wood glue on the formers in stead of hot glue. The only major mess up I've found so far is they put tubes in for the rudder and elevator but forgot that they need two for both elevator halves. There is also no U shaped joiner or place to put one in the elevator halves so I put another hole in the fuse for a second push rod and set it up that way. other than that I'm very impressed with this ARF and pulled out the US40+ plans and lined everything up with this ARF and it is very close and even has the 2 deg built into the firewall. Just need to get my engine from my friends house to set it up. Can't wait to see how it flies.
