Hardware package was a little thin. BTW, the nose hase been stretched a bit for ease in balancing. I have a Quadra 35 in mine. It flies nice but the ground handling in horrible. You break something (rudders mostly) about avery other landing. Don't even try to fly it in the wind unless you have a parachute to land it with. Actually, I think most of the problems I have with it is the power to weight ratio. I'm just not used to airplanes that fly on the wing rather than sheer power.
