This kit is great. It was my first airplane kit actually and it kept me occupied why I was bored. I am really not delicate so right out of the box I broke something and I kept messing up with the tiny little balsa piece that are overly fragile and the CA glue that kept sticking to my finger, but otherwise it was good. Covering with tissue (it's like the thinnest paper towel in the world) was a real pain.
What I don't like with this kit is all the parts that aren't wood. I hate the covering tissue, the wheels looks terrible, the propeller is garbage, the engine cowl doesn't fit perfectly and the worst thing I have ever seen is the ''decals'' included in the box. Maybe i was doing something wrong with them, but just looking at them they would break into 999 tiny pieces and were a real pain to put on.
Otherwise the plane is nice. I ordered new ''tundra'' wheels for cheap and it looks pretty nice from afar.
