Great kit for price. Quality fittings. Definitely a need to re-hinge all control surfaces as not all pins are secure. If going electric install the heaviest available in motor range and use offsets to keep motor well forward as you will still need a large battery right forward to get CofG slightly forward of main spar. I made a rounded balsa cowl to fit over top of motor bay - makes a big improvement on appearance.

I use a Zippy Compact 5S 4000mah 25C weighing in at 460 gm and built a foam lined battery tray and can slide it in via the main hatch.

Plane flies on rails and goes exactly where you point it - much easier to fly than an AXN Floater which has a mind of its own even in a slight breeze.

This is a very good kit for the price and is as strong as needs be for its size and weight. It features clever use of plywood and holes for strength.
It has started life as electric but I might convert to glow if a fuselage separates itself from one of my .46 motors.
They no longer pack screws for tail assembly and I wouldn't use them anyway. 15 min epoxy is far more efficient. Good quality hardware. All hinged surfaces come pre-fixed with one pin on each side of hing. I will have to remove one to ensure CA has been used as well.
4 Crowns for quality due to covering scheme not as colorful as illustration - yellow and white with red trim for mine and covering shows signs of rubbing wear in places - but not due to Hobby Kings good internal packing.

First impression when I open the box was disappointed, it was easy to see the low quality. 2 screws for fixing the tail was missing, covering was damage and it was not because of transport. weels where out of center.
I was going to use a elektronic set up and it is not easy to find a place for battery.
But positive things : after building it looks much better and fly very nice.
easy to assemble actually. it is very good for the price. easy to see it when you fly and nice big wings makes it easy to fly and land.
