Took about an hour to unpack and assemble. I think this was the simplest and fastest assembly I've ever done except for an out of the box UMX. The most time, still not much, was to cut off the EC5 and solder on my own with an anti-spark.I bypassed the MCBe for the elevator, rudder and steering (on it's own channel).The likes:The blue is a lot darker than the pictures show, I know some still will not like it.No glue needed. I did put some glue on the carbon tube pointy end things and I dis put some cA glue in the holes where the battery tray is screwed down.I like that all of the screw were the same and hex.The wing latches are awesome, even better than the B-25 and Cougar and the wing side is nice thick metal tabs, very well done, very positive and not easy to accidentally unlatch.The motor (8S version) has the two tapped holes for the afterburner, which I did put on Huge battery bay and my 6+2 5200 is slightly forward of the center of the battery tray for a 5mm behind the marks balance.The spar and nose cone can be put in the battery area when not in use (I really wish all planes could do this).Since everything screwed together this can go back in it's original box if needed in the future.Dislikes:The fuselage sides are very thin, seems delicate.The lip around the canopy opening will get hanger rash.
