I received the package in good condition. It took me a couple of days to get the plane in flyable condition.
There were a couple of things that were not correct! The manual that I read on your web page, and the manual that came with the plane, were a bit differant. The one on your web page shows the vortices and horizontal stab as a bolt on, where the manual that came with the plane shows them as a glue in place!
Anyways, I really like the covering, and the quality of the kit! I made mine electric, and it was just as easy as going with the glow set-up!
Once all of the settings were programmed, I went to the field for the maiden flight! The first thing I noticed, was that the tail wheel needed to be bent to lower the tail closer to the ground! Once I got that problem taken care of, the plane would taxi around on a bumpy runway without nosing over!Once I took off, the plane became much different! It tracked very well, and was reactive to control inputs! I was lucky and did not have to trim any of the control surfaces! Not one click!
As I flew around, I gradually increased the speed! The faster I went, the better this plane handled. I used the power system that I use in the Prowd Bird, so it was moving around the course at around 115 mph. The plane is easy to see, and easy to tell the top from the bottom!
I was not impressed with the motor mount for the electric conversion, but I did use it, and, so far, it is working just fine!
