I have to say that I found the Pup to be a very satisfying build. Yet to fly, it was less frustrating than some other models.

I just finished the build and look forward to flying my Pup. Building while following videos was new to me and this is probably my 10th MicroAces WWI kit, I think I have them all. Strangely, I made more mistakes trying to follow the videos than I do with 2D interaction manuals but I got it done. I have had a lot of friends ask how long they take to build. Now I know pretty much to the minute! Mine all fly but the longer nose fighters like the SE5a, F.2b, or D.VII, are more stable. But I love these spinning radials. Cheers

This is really great looking kit, im thinking about buying Hansa Brandenburg, wish to see that kit assembly too.
