I'm finishing up one for my Dad right now. The airframe construction is great but the covering (oracover) is not quite up to par with great planes new ARFs like the Shoestring which are covered in Monokote by...experts apparently. When I say that I mean there are some wrinkles near the edges where they just ironed it down without stretching it tight first. I am very picky though. The airplane is very easy to assemble by simply looking at the pictures in the manual. That's right, I didn't read it. Also, the included motor and gear box are not really the highest quality...rather they are the cheapest. My brand new propshaft is slightly bent so the prop arc is an 1/8 to 1/4 inch off when spinning. I can live with it, but it's not precision equipment. I haven't flown it yet but I can tell it will be a great flyer. Very light and perfectly straight. It's very attractive too! Even with the flaws it's still a great little plane. Buy it.
