I have built 3 of them.......only advise is BUILD ONE....they are fantastic airplanes.

if you follow the build article that comes with the kit, then you will do well....I swap the bellcranks out for 4" phenolic ones.....but other than that, I build from the kit.....

Hi Guys,
The kit version is a good build and a great flyer.

I believe the wing construction as described in the building manual threw a few builders when attempting to build over the rails provided. I have to ask around about that. I built my wing on a jig so some problems were not experienced by yours truly.

I did fully sheet my wing (No Open Bays)
