I have been asked to build (assemble) this Kit for a customer of John's Hobbies.  It is huge.  30CC size, 85".  It will be powered by an E-Flite Power 360 180 kv.  The motor arrived today.  It is bigger than a washing machine motor. :D
The Horizon website of this model.  https://www.horizonhobby.com/product/storefronts/almost-ready-to-fly/hangar-9-brand/vans-rv-4-30cc-p-han4885

Some of the motor stats:Almost 3 lbs (44oz), 6000 watts of power (burst) 44 volts (12 S), needs a 160-200 amp HV ESC.

I have built or repaired several models for this same customer.

I will attempt to post photos of the progress on this build.  The plane kit and motor are in the store already.  All the servos and RC equipment are on order.  The project will probably start around Christmas.
