If you are indeed going to order the quick build wings ... then yes I would order
the slow fuse now.
The slow build wings give you a little more practice (if you need it) with all aspects of building before going on to the fuselage.
The new -1 fuse is indeed a great improvement over the old (jig) fuse kit.
Good luck!

Default Agreed

I agree with Steve. As a first time builder it has been helpful to have the wings done when tackling the fuse. And yes the -1 fuse is very good with great instructions!
