This kit is relatively straight forward. The instructions are pretty easy to understand, and are also correct. The manufacturer gives some hints on detailing and that's the hardest part. They suggest using the heads of pins for the rivets in the fins. This took up the bulk of my building time as it took over 150 pin heads to accomplish this. The only problems that I had with the kit is the balsa stock provided with the kit. It's really soft and needs to be reinforced. Unfortunately I didn't do this and I broke a fin and one of the runners on the first flight. Speaking of flights, I flew the model on a D-12-3 for the first flight. Boost was real good and ejection happened right on time. The landing hurt though as that's when it broke it's fins. In conclusion this kit is cool. You need some modeling experience to do the job right though, (not for beginners). When I fix mine, I'm going to reinforce the fins to make them more durable.  This is a must buy, the thing looks great just sitting out being displayed. At about $20 it's a good bargain too.
