Like all Guiwillow's series 500 kits it is accurate and complete. There is a problem with the final assembly... the wing is supposed to pass through the fuselage and the opening does not allow this to be done. I had to remove a section of the fuselage to attatch the wing assembly and then scratch build parts to replace what was removed. Also I choose to cover these kits with 1/32" balsa sheet instead of the tissue supplied so my build time is much more than the kit states. That is not the fault of the manufacturer, I feel the finished product looks much better. I've built all this series and I am very happy with the results!

I did not get a chance to say something about the precut parts. almost every one of them was too narrow for the 16th balsa wood stringer to fit in it. I had to knotch out almost every one. This made the alignment off line a little which left everything askew. The model did not come out as well as your first model that I assembled. I was also disappointed in the front cowling. It appeared that it came from a different model. I had to jury rig it to make it halfway work.

The Lazar cut pieces are easy to work with. Its been a lot of years since I built a balsa plane and the scale was smaller then expected... But still fun to build.

Its a balsa wood model. Its not expected to be durable. It was very easy to assemble.
