Dont let it sway you 1 builder. If it is anything like mine, you will be absolutlely satisfied. It is an outstandingly well built kit with a few cheap parts and it flys as gentle as a lamb or as brutal as you want to be. Extremely solid plane and if you were to compare it with an H-9, it will give it a run for the money without all the money. Mine has over 140 flights and I finally wore that gear out at about 120. I just wish this one was out when I was in the market for mine!! P.S. Stick a Sig medium tailwheel assy on it and leave the second leaf spring out. Not needed.
