I think this is a really nice plane, it was easy to build and flies really well. I'm not sure if the kit version is worth the full price, but buying it on sale and already having all the electronics made it a pretty good deal for me. Bad things: I don't think my model got printed correctly, it seems a bit red, but I choose to believe that it has character and it still looks pretty good in the air. It also had a few minor cutting errors, mostly with the locations of the control horn slots, but those were easy to fix. Good things: It was very easy to build. Andrew Newton has a build video on youtube which is very easy to follow. Only small modifications were needed to fix some small cutting errors, but nothing was missing. It flies great, even in a relatively small area. So far I've only flown it at a baseball field and that was very manageable. Nose in crashes will usually break off the firewall, but it's EPP and plywood so it's very easy to fix.

The DW E19 Eagle is a fun bird to build and fly. Some advice to pilots ... beak is weak and will tear in a minor crash. Add thin plywood inside beak with bracing in front of and behind the motor mount. Add a thin battery tray supported by popsicle sticks glued to the fuselage. See online build videos. I used Clear Gorilla Glue to assemble. It takes an hour to initially cure, but the results are worth it. Hold most parts in place with 4" and smaller clamps. I mounted tail feathers at 120 degrees with v-tail mixing in the radio. It turns well with only rudder, in fact flat turn is possible with opposing aileron control. One of my 2 birds' wings folded at high angle of attack. Keep the speed down, I guess. Very relaxing to fly in low wind. Impressive sight in the air.
