WOW!!!! My 4th model is so awsome. It's the Guillows 400 series. It has everything you need and more. Can't wait to start it.

The 400 Zero was my favorite build. And for only my 2nd one it turned out nice even though it didnt fly. At some point I will make another.Very beautiful plane, but hard to balance.

Angie,

The 400 series are my favorite, and I believe these are the kits that Guillow's can truly say are the best designed Multi Purpose kits. They are not however the best flying on a rubber motor, although I have built all of the 400 series as per Guillow's and they will fly.

I just assembled my skeleton in about 12 hours. IMO, the parts are excellent. The laser cutting is precise. The only thing I can say is the slot in A2 for the tail is tight. I built up the fuselage then had to "open" the slit with a file. I would pre-fit a D part (3/32) and open up that slit with my x-acto knife next time.

Happy Building... Mitch

PS: You can build the model exactly like Guillow says or try SOME of the things I have done. You can expect to get about a dozen flights out of the rubber before it is worn out.
