i have built one, and love it! it flys well stock i even fly mine with the wheels on it flys a little slower yet looks good doing touch and go's. the only thing i found to be difficult was the fan instillation into the pod. the two halfs dont fit just right and it taks some time to get right. make sure you put the foam rubber in around the fan i think it makes it last longer than hard mounting. have heard people complain that there motors went bad after only a few flights. have well over 30 flights on mine without any problems. if you have any more questions e-mail me direct at [email protected] wish you luck
