Good build quality aside from the front landing gear which WILL break on hard landings or running into grass. It's repairable but needs special glue for the firewall/gear-mount made of polythylene plastic. Regular super-glue won't bind to it. Flight characteristics are a bit more aggressive than expected from a scale Cessna, since the airfoil design is almost symmetrical. It's fast and would benefit from a flaps mod. It's a deal for the bargain price, at full price not so much.

The plane looks great and flies very well, with plenty of power. I'd like it to have landing flaps to reduce speed. This is my first slightly larger model, and I installed an FMS V3 flight stabilizer, which helps it handle even in windy conditions. The plane survived one hard landing, requiring me to glue the wings together, but it still flies well. One day, during takeoff, I caught the ESC on grass and it caught fire. After replacing the ESC (I used a 50A Hobbywing because that's what I had on hand), it still performs very well. The nose landing gear on this plane seems fragile, but so far, I haven't broken it :) The plane and propellers are relatively cheap, I recommend it for learning to fly.
