Hi Phil and Martin
No real fit issues although I have heard others had warping problems. It’s more like an Airfix kit. All plastic, used superglue and 5 minute epoxy for assembly. Obviously the main issue is the size and shoe horning the radio gear in.
Used a 385 motor as the stock motor that came with it is a 400 and on first test it nearly took off in the bath. The 385 is much better and now it’s more scale speed. ESC is Mtroniks 10amp. Batteries are Overlander 7.2v 1600 saddle type. The longest I have run it for is 45min and still had loads in the battery.
It is a fiddle to get every thing installed. One of the trickiest is trying to connect the rudder to the servo, nota lot of room for sausage fingers!
It’s compact and easy to cart about. Bought a 8 quid soft bag off of Amazon to carry it in. I paid £99 for mine and I think they are available for about £109.
If you have even a moderate amount of skills it should be an easy build. Just change the stock motor unless you want a speed boat.
