Is this a good first balsa build? I have lots of knoledge on foamies and arfs and have the skill set to build this, I even have a monokote iron.

This was one of my first RC builds. It is about as easy as it gets for a stick built sailplane.

hello what type of glue was used to assemble the plane?

CA or super glue. I use the medium viscosity. And 5 minute epoxy when joining the wings together. Do NOT use wood glue it makes the plane much heavier.

GREAT SAIL PLANE

I looded for awhile before finding this great Sail Plane kit, I started on the 11th and have it ready for the paint as of the 25th, the planes where verry well drawn and well written so most people can read an follow the directions with out much worrie. I also found that useing a go super glue that is flexible and strong at the same time but mostly i used a fst glue for tacking and alining the parts. Thanks for the great kit and fly safe out there :) Jeffery Wages
