A lot of parts. The kit looks well designed regarding details.

The manual is fairly difficult. For example: Step one: 'lay out all the parts needed for the wing' - step 2: 'Here you see a close up detail of the whole wing put together'...

The quality of the wood is below average. Some parts are cut of a thicker type of balsa which will end up in one wing being too heavy (or the other one too light eh).

Also, one part of my fuselage was cut so close to the edge that a good part was cut off :( The same happened with a nose/cowl part. I'll have to clue some scrap wood against it and use a jigsaw to make both sides equal again.

So, i mostly certainly will enjoy putting this model together, but fixing some parts even before putting it together is a huge let down.

As above review stated, the instructions are beyond a joke, mine also arrived with a lot of the "laser cut" pieces not so much "cut" as drawn out, so I still had to get my knife and cut out all the bits myself. Other parts that had been cut had dropped out breaking in the bag they came with, not a winning start! I would look at this as more a "puzzle" than a "kit", if you search around there are a few build logs going on which helped me a lot. Once built it seems a nice(ish) model but not had the weather to maiden yet. Also not so sure on the 3s 2200 battery as stated? It certainly won't fit in the battery bay on my model. Enjoyed the build, but it was certainly a challenge...

Well all I can say is, that is a lot of bits. Now I just hope I do not loose any. So YES it is worth every cent I paid. It will be fun putting her together. Very light instructions. All hardware included!

My first balsa build. A bit of a challenge but I have now finished. Ready to see if I can fly it and bring her down in one piece. The instructions supplied are a bit on the lean side of information, the help of google went a long way. I have to give it 5 stars as it went together really well and looks great,

For those enthusiasts in building a great kit, this is a very good model. The shape is real Cessna 182 perfectly matched. No parts missing. Hi laser cut precision, so you dont have to use cutter anywhere. Very recommended for beginners and medium building experience.

OK, first things first. Needs building plans. I've built a lot of balsa models so it'll be fun for me but not for a begainner.
