Default Aviomodelli Cardinal???

I was wondering if any one has one of these beautiful airplanes as I am considering one. I want info on how easy it is to build since I have only built ARF's not kits. Any info or pictures on this would be greatly appreciated.

I have one of these flying and another kit in the box. The one I am flying has a 120 FS. It seems to fly very good and it will do some aerobatics, rolling circles etc. Does not seem to have any bad habits. It is not hard to put together, but you should coat the wing and tail feathers. Ialso added tail bracing as I felt the tail feathers where a little flimsey. Also the nose gear is a little soft (bends easy) Flying I would say is its strong point. Rich

Thanks for the input, but I went ahead with a different bird as I did not like how much work
I had to do to get it flying. I wanted a true 90% ARF and did not want to re-engineer a $320 ARF. Im sure it does fly good but dont have to much time to spend on this kind of project.

ARC (makers of the "Ready") is coming out with an all plastic .60 size Cardinal with a 67" wing. Looks terrific. Will even be available with Floats!
