You can take your first flight the same day you open the box! The fiberglass fuselage, wing tips, wheel pants, and cowl come expertly painted, and the built-up wood wing and tail have film covering already applied.
Great Planes selected fiberglass as the best material for the fuselage, wing tips, cowl, and wheel pants  due to its low weight, strength, and ability to recreate the full-size Lancair ES aircraft's smooth contours.
Like the full-size Lancair ES, this electric model has fixed landing gear in a tricycle configuration that offers the option of a steerable nose wheel for greater ground control. White fiberglass wheel pants provide a crowning touch of detail.
For a clean installation, the gearbox mounts in front of the firewall. The motor bolts in behind it. Cooling holes in the fuselage supply ventilation.
