ORIGINAL: BEAR-AvHistory

$300 give me a break, the Pulse XT is pretty much built coming out of the box.

The motor and fuel system is installed & ready to go just put the prop on.

All the Servos and other electronics are installed with push rods connected.

The builder has to:

Bolt on the wheel pants (two bolts),
Bolt the landing gear to the fuselage,
Secure the tail with the supplied lock nuts,
Slide the wing halves together on the aluminum spar pipe
Attach the ''Y'' harness to two pre-installed aileron servos.

I would think most people could put it together themselves or a guy from a local club could help out for a six pack ofGuinness Stout
You are right if it is the PNP version of the Pulse XT 40 but not if it is just the ARF kit. That requires assembly like any other ARF.
