I like the paint job on that bad boy. Still looks pristine and still flys nice even on tired batteries.

I've obviously hidden the repairs well

Kiddo you do everything well. Haven't seen anything to the contrary yet from you.

One of my favorite planes, I have two of them in my hangar, such a great flyer. Great looking plane you have and a great flight, thanks for sharing!

what are your thoughts on the racer? hard to build? fun to fly? is it good for begineers? do you need a big area for it? whats a good size battery and motor. sorry for the questions, just thinking about building it

@CarolineTyler love the paint job! Love the flying skills you have, especially the low passes you did! You kinda made me want to build a new one myself .

It's a very easy build, no fancy foam shaping required as the top desk is thickish card. Using UK foam board made mine quite a bit heavier than standard so opted for a 4S power train. Despite its name, it is not an overly fast plane making it a pretty good first low wing plane after a trainer.
I don't think you need a massive space to fly it, soccer pitch is fine
