Is the plane ready to use out of the box or does the sole need to be worked?

Blade needs sharpening if you like a sharp edge, all in all I was not happy with mine as it would not maintain my adjustments and did not cut satisfactory and it's made in Mhexico. Save your bucks and spend a little more on a Veritas plane from Lee Valley Tools you will be totally satisfied.

It was REAL close. That is to say, better out of the box than most, and very usable. I did flatten it a bit out pickyness.

I found the sole to be smooth and flat right out of the box. It didn't require flattening like an older Stanley found at a garage sale. I did ease the edges of the sole, they were more crisp than necessary. It planes with out marring the surface.

There is some minor assembly required. For example, the wingtips have to be taped on, as does the tail fin, and you'll need to charge and install the included battery. You'll also need to install the landing gear if you intend to use them.

Mine was dead on arrival. Support was awful. Expect that if they don't work off the bat, they likely won't work at all. The pedals are usually run through the simulator anyway , so if you are using plane, you are likely good to go.

Sharon, I bought this plane and knew it was a horrible mistake. You will have to build the plane to figure out. There are no controls or electrical appliances to this plane. I would buy the Hobbyzone champ. Definetely worth the best buy.

Hi there, the wing is fairly thin but shouldn't break if not treated TOO badly. I would recommend lining it with packing tape though just to avoid breaks longer. I also had the prop shaft break, but it's because it's so long. You can find those for like 5 bucks. It's a really good little plane for the price, it's a small styrofoam plane so of course it's going to break while learning but a really good deal all around.

It's not painted. It's a lot of fun to paint the plane, but it look decent without the paint. As my first batch I didn't have the confident to do the painting.

Yes it is ready to fly. No need for anything, just unbox the helicopter and enjoy!

It is a prebuilt. The only thing you need to do is attach the propeller and the cockpit to the frame. It is sturdy. My son collects those.

Yes. This is a great plane to get into the hobby with. I would recommend it highly.

I think it is the perfect model plane for the 12 year old who is building his first model plane! Not the best model quality-wise but perfect for practice.

Yes, it's ready to go out of the box. Its quite an awesome little camera. I get lots of compliments on the colour too.

The final size of the model depends on which one you assemble, given that you can make several things with the parts. I don't have the plane assembled at this time, so I can't give specifics. However, if memory serves, its around 6 inches long for the plane in the box cover. With a little luck, someone will pop in with an exact number soon, but you can use that as an approximation.

Yes it's ready to go out of the box. If you want different pads or a wool buffing pad you will have to buy those. I suggest getting a hook and loop backing pad, a fine finishing pad and a wool polishing pad. Mine works fine

Yes, just take it out of the box and it's ready to use! It's very sturdy and the rubber caps keep it from scooting so it's pretty secure.

Mine was ready to go right out of the box. No assembly at all. Is a great product. My little chawawas love it. It took a whole 5 mins to train both of them.
