    A friend of mine recently purchased the Shogun from Hobby Shack.  It is
a nice little kit but it is very VERY small.  Mini servos are almost a must
as well as a mini receiver pack.  The plane is not light for it's size so a
brisk wind is also a must.  This is NOT a beginner aircraft.  It will take
a few good knocks but I can see that it would not be a fun plane to learn
on.

Best Wishes,
