Default Aerotech kits. Quality kits?

I'm thinking about buying the Extra 330XS from them but, unsure since I have never seen one of their planes. Anyone have any experience or knowledge of their kits? Any Info would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Jim, Found the site and read some of the comments and it sounds like they are good kits. Guess I'll go ahead and order the Extra. Thanks a bunch for your help and feedback.
Take care,
Carroll

Well, I called John at Aerotech yesterday to order the Extra 330 and was disappointed that he does not take credit cards for payment. He said he got burned awhile back for $3000 dollars.
You have to send a money order or check and then he will start on your kit. He was very pleasant to talk to and has a great web site. Just not too sure about the payment plan though.
Never had a co. to turn down credit cards. Maybe I am looking at this wrong.

If you give up on the Aerotech, check out the Extra's on Radio Craft's website: www.radiocraft.com

They have kit and ARF versions.

Default Decided on Carden 300S

I did look at the RadioCraft kits but, I was really looking for a 27 to 30% size. I went ahead and ordered the Carden 30% Extra 300S from Dennis.
I was a little disapointed that I won't receive the kit until the end of March but I feel that I made the right choice. I also ordered a Brison 4.2 to power it.
Thanks to all that replied.
Carroll
