“As others have already said, the assembly has some questions that a good manual should resolve. I would be willing to do one, but would need to start with a new kit from the ground up.The good: This 3d plane is a delight to fly. Very stable and forgiving. Knife edges with almost no coupling. Loops, rolls, hammerheads, cuban 8s are easy to perform with this model. Materials provide a light and stiff surfaces to fly with. EPP is durable stuff. The rudder is a bit less stiff, but seems to works fine. I easily get 5 to 6 minutes with recommended battery. Have been flying with the radio timer on 5 min but could go 6 or 7.The bad:The landing gear is a bit weak. If you land it in grass (even slow) or come in less than gentle on the pavement, the gear will tear out of the foam. I removed mine and hand launch and flies well without with no issues. After about 20 flights or so, the motor and esc failed with noticeable smoke and overheat. It looks like the esc failed internally as it fried an older replacement motor I attached to it (assumed the motor was bad). Equivalent motor and esc is now onboard and it is back in the air.At this price point, I am not surprised about the electronics reliability. Very good price for an overall package. I am sure others will have a better experience than mine.”

“I love this plane, but the description for recommended battery is much too light. Needs at least 1100 mAh 3S battery to have hover power and proper CG and flight time. I had to carve the battery compartment a little extra. I looked up the electronic parts and they should even handle 4S, but 3S seems right.”

“Looking beyond the assembly issues, I've had this plane flying for a while and flown it a couple dozen times. Its a very fun plane. Whether you want to learn to fly 3D or just have a park flyer for a new pilot that you dont have to worry about crashing, this is the plane for you. It makes me want to look at other ARF foamy models this flies so well. Motion RC should start carrying models like https://twistedhobbys.com/ sells.”

“many things are not mentioned in the instructions. After all is done it is a good flying plane, but one must be a bit creative to assemble it correctly.”

“The Assembly Instructions for the plane you receive are for an old Hobby King version and do not match many of the new components at all. I think I've figured it all out.I would suggest not installing the servos at all until the plane is fully assembled. You can glue the wing halves together and install the flat spars, and still install it into the fuselage by folding an aileron, or you can glue it in a half at a time. I dont know what they expected users to do.The 4 tube spars are for the fuselage, and you have to hollow out the foam channels they go into. If youve ever built a flite test model you understand that process.The servos install per the instructions, I just wouldnt do them til the end, they just get in the way. This could be a way easier assembly if they just did a few tongue and groove, or notched fitting points so that things go together squarely. The chinese company who makes this MUST have assembly instructions for their Asian customers. I dont know why Motion/Skynetic hasnt found them yet.”

“I replaced all four of the control horns and push rods with a slightly larger set. The hard part is deciding whether to mount the wings and then glue the wing stiffeners or to glue the stiffeners and the wing roots first and then cut out and replace a piece of the fuselage aft of the wing center. I glued the stiffeners first to control the straightness of the wing and avoid any twist or dihedral. If this is a first or early build you should get some advice from somebody with experience because the supplied directions are not complete.”
