Customers are mixed about the quality of the kit. Some mention that it's a good product for competent builders, and well worth the price. However, others say that the quality is not very good, and the balsa wood keeps crumbling at edges.

"...Although this is about double the price of the Mustang, it is well-worth it, and I would even recommend this model to someone building their first..." Read more

"...Maybe just a poor harvest of wood. Seems more easy broken. Perhaps cut thinner. With care of building, still a fine kit." Read more

"...Blow hard enough and the pieces will separate from the carrier! Cool! I'll put a few of these basic kits together before going after the R/C kits!" Read more
