RE: Kit question for a beginner
 
Good choices, With the .46 AX and 6 channel radio, you have equipment that you can grow into.

As far as the kit build, it requires a lot of patience. Don't get in a hurry, and when things are not fitting just right, walk away, take a break. It will go together better with a clear mind.

Remember, this is the relaxing part of the hobby.

Keep us posted with your progress.

Powered with an older tower hobbies .40 11x7 prop. very easy to fly lands nice and slow, has enough control to do basic aerobatics.
