I've often pondered getting a model of one of these. It's an interesting plane and quite a successful design in the full size version.
So when this one went up for auction on ebay starting at 99 cents I thought I might keep an eye on it, but some how I accidentally clicked the bid button............................ and well,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it ended up arriving on my doorstep Tuesday morning from super and cheaper.

Here are a couple of Pics of the fuse sitting on my work bench awaiting some attention.

   

Looking at it's construction it seems very nicely made and remarkably lightly built. All laser cut ply and balsa.


This is the motor I'll most likely be using in it

and this is the ESC

It should be quite a good bit of fun to fly with that set up as it will probably work out lighter and more powerfull than the intended powerplant
and the air frame design lends it self to electric power very nicely

I must say the instructions are not that good and there's a mistake in the way they are written so that if you follow them and hinge the elevator before attaching the tail plane you won't be able to put it together at all. Which is a bit silly. I won't be falling for that tho'
