Thanks for good words guys! Its good build so quality KIT, plans are made really good. Can't compare to any as its my first one, but its pretty easy.

Power setup is used from this plane. Its cheap one
Emax GT2826/05 motor 860 kv i think with 14x7 prop.
HK 60A ESC with 5,5 v BEC
Turnigy servos http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__46389__Turnigy_XGD_11HMB_Digital_Mini_Servo_3_0k g_11g_0_12_EU_Warehouse_.html
Zippy compact 2700 3S 35C lipo

Total weight about 1400 g (50 oz) without batteries. Original Sebart weight is 1250 g (44 oz).

Motor works just fine for me, enough thrust. Servos are different story. All worked fine, but elevator i broke in the air on my first SU doing waterfall. May too much speed, i don't know. I'm not experienced flyer. Was able to land. Replaced with same flied several times and now after installation it broke again.. In video moves up just fine, but down just a little. Going to replace with Corona 929MG.
May servo arm was too long? As now i use smaller control horn so may will work better here,

Expecting first flight after Christmas :)
