Only problems I had were (1) needed to sand the main wing joiner to get it to fit in each wing, (2) the landing gear/wheels gave the plane about a 4 degree up stance. There was no way to adjust the gear so I installed a smaller nosewheel to reduce the up stance to about 2 degrees.

The MotionRC hardware and electronics selection work well with the build. The main deficiency is that the electric motor mounting kit are the bolts, washers and nuts supplied are 5mm, but the factory installed blind nuts are 4mm. So a builder will need to modify accordingly. I had all the hardware for 4mm installation, so I used those. The plane flew well and was stable with hands off the controls sticks. With the 5s battery, the vertical climbs were really good. Landing was very easy with a decent flight window.
