I bought this plane on a Friday, received shipping confirmation on Monday, had it delivered on Wednesday, and in the air by Thursday. (Shipped from US warehouse via standard shipping through USPS. It didn't appear to be handled by DHL at all.) I cringed as the delivery guy walked up to my door with a large "bag" package. Surprisingly, there was no damage in shipping aside from a downward-bent tailing edge area of the central wing piece (used for the full 2.6m build.) Going for ease of transport, I opted to do my initial build in 1.6m format using Brian Phillips' build series of YouTube videos on this plane; I didn't use the manual at all. Highly recommend you do the same! *I'm using 3S 45C 2200mah LiPo packs. Each weighs 190 grams. *In 1.6m, center of gravity sits between 67~70mm from the leading edge at the wing root. *There are two screws on each of the front sides of the fuselage that hold the plywood battery tray in place. Remove each screw, pull out the tray, and remove the massive weight that is placed at the front of the tray if you intend to use this for powered flight. (I guess it would be necessary for smaller battery packs or pure gliding configurations?) When mounting the tray back in place, don't use the previous holes in the tray; mount it as aft as possible if you'll be using 3S packs. I was able to use the same screws to re-fasten the battery tray without any drilling. *The ESC brake is off by default. There are several forum posts and videos that can instruct on setting the brake for smooth gliding and damage-free landing. (Search "volantex esc brake set".) *The factory dimpling for control horn orientation on the rudder is deceptive. The larger servo in the fuselage is for the elevator. On mine (facing the back of the plane), the elevator control is on the left, and rudder is on the right. *If you watch the Brian Phillips build series, you'll note that he makes a few improvements for the vertical stabilizer after the maiden flight. Just as he did, I used hot glue to adhere the stabilizer to the fuselage to prevent it from fluttering. He also adds a hinge near the rudder control horn and attaches it to the fuselage. I didn't go this route. Instead, I reinforced the existing foam hinge on the rudder (and all other control surfaces) using packing tape; placing extra emphasis on the rudder's "weak spot."
