Just bought it. Will open the box when I get into town in two weeks. Right now, I'm "stuck" in Las Vegas "doing buisness" as an "inspector" until they get the "job done", perhaps in a few weeks. I'll make a build thread for it when I get back from "work."

Not much to say after building the plane. Built it in 10 hours, very little mods. Flies great. Needs bigger rudder, no KE until then. Here's what I used. Futaba 3350's all around, some cheap beat up servo for the throttle. OS 70 four stroke. I will put my 91 four stroke on it after I don't have the desire to fix my profile again. I keep beating the snot out of it at about 2 feet. I built it exactly as the instructions say, very very easy. CG was spot on, no added weight. Spinner was a problem, but the plane deided to shed that after about flight 3, problem solved. I have my rates maxed out, with about 20% expo on the ailerons only.

Kinda looks like a Tiger 2 with a rounded turtle deck. I like it.
