Default When will it be done?.....

.......a question you'll hear more that you could ever dream. My answer, "When it's done right!" Don't get in a hurry, It'll take longer than you think so you better just plan on doing it right the first time, do overs add time. Enjoy your build, if you don't you shouldn't be doing it.
My standard kits took 3 yrs 10 mos. Solo build except when I couldn't reach both sides. Has now been flying 10 yrs 2 mos.

If I could add one more thing for a NEWBIE it would be buy swimming pool noodles. You know the the ones about 5 feet long. When you get your prop ON take the noodle and cut it in half. Now take one of the halves and near the end of it your going to cut a slice about 5 inches long. This slice you will slide the prop end thru. These will hang off the prop blades in the horizontal pos on the two blade and works really WELL on the three blade.(Don't ask me how I know) If you haven't guess it this is a tried and true to keep your head where it is suppose to be..

NUMBER TWO ! Buy another noodle cut it to fit your steps. Whether building or camping there seems there are NO EYES to see the darn thing when you need to see it most!

Iam stick-en to my words!

Tried and true! Your skull will thank you.!!!!!
