    This is great kit! Mark and Trish once again have created a great value and a great product.

    I finished building mine last night and flew it this morning at our very small indoor venue and it performed flawlessly and attracted a lot of attention.

    We have a 4th of July event coming up in which this plane will be flown for a crowd of people new to the hobby.

    I love how it can be flown fast and precise yet can be slowed down to a walk in high alpha.

    The kit was easy enough to build. The hardest part is probably dealing with the decals. I discovered a little trick to help with the small ones; cut out around them leaving a larger area and then peal back some backing, cut it in half and put the backing back in place. Then trim the decal to size. You can now separate the backing, apply half to the plane and then remove the other half and complete the decal.

    The kit was packed with layers of paper separating the sheets of foam and decals. The tabs were just the right amount to hold the parts in place and not so many as to take a lot of time getting them cut free.

    You do have to pay attention to the build video. It can be easy to get some of the parts or decals in the wrong place. Ask me how I know that...

    I used Aileens Tacky Glue which was a good thing. I glued a couple of pieces on only to realize they were on the wrong side of the main part. A bit of water on a paper towel and the glue was easily removed and the part secured correctly with no ill effects.

    You guys will want to buy one or more of these little critters. Help M&T while getting a great plane to fly...
