I got my 8S bird today and this thing is a beast if a plane. New style of hinges make them almost invisible. Nice touches all around and I don't feel the need to re-paint it! LOL Everything worked perfectly and I noticed no slop in my aileron and flap hinges. I plan to fly it stock and will then do a few mods. Cockpit detail, opening canopy, RC Geek center burner and nav lights. Anxious to try out this new 1390kV fan. Overall I am very impressed with it so far. When I first opened the box I thought the vertical fins were the wing... :Silly:

Make sure you check your plane out carefully. I have approximately a 12" seam that is not sealed/connected. It's the right side of the battery area/right intake. I went ahead and added some medium CA. If I want a little better seal, I'll add a strip of fiberglass and 30 minute epoxy. I don't think this is a structural area and will affect the overall strength of the plane. I'll update after my first flight, likely next Monday.1 Photo

Got mine put together last night. I did notice with certain flap deflections and certain rates for the ailerons, the aileron hits the flap. Also, one screw for each stab are too long and won't screw in flush where it is supposed to sit. Watched the build video James did and looked close and his seemed to be the same way though.1 Photo

No interference with flaps and stabs on mine. I don't think the screws are intended to sit flush that hold the stab pivot rods. Mine stick out too. I did also like the ball bearings inside the stabs, very smooth.
