Hey all
I am looking to score a new kit this weekend. This will be my 2dn kit, and my 3rd plane. I built a 4* .40 this winter and was bitten by the building bug. I have narrowed my choices down to 2 planes: The Pete n' Poke , or a Sig SE. I know the Pete is a less than simple build and that some say it's a handful to fly, but for some reason, I still want one! The SE one the other hand looks sweet!!! I also hear she's a pleasure to fly. Give me some opinions so I can make a choice, or I may have to talk the wife into letting me get both!!! Thanks!

Go with the Sig SE...you won't be disappointed.
If you are looking for something really fun to build and flies great go with one of Bruce Tharpes kits: http://www.btemodels.com/index.html
Exceptional quality in wood and machine cutting.
Cheers,

My vote would be the SSE! Great plane to build and fly. After just constructing one I am enjoying it very much. It is a plane that everyone should own as a back up or as your main flyer.
