Skill Level 3 aircraft, like this one, are suitable for more knowledgeable RC pilots who already have the skills to assemble, set up and fly comparable class designs. This PNP variation needs more experience and skills to assemble and fly than the BNF Fundamental variation since you will need to set up a receiver that does not already include properly tuned AS3X and SAFE Select technologies. It's not an ideal first-ever RC aircraft for new pilots, a “next step after a trainer” design for low-time RC pilots, or first 3D capable design for intermediate pilots. You need to have the experience and skills necessary to effectively fly greater efficiency, 3D capable and/or twin-powered designs like the E-flite Twin Wood 1.6m, Wood X 1.2m, Extra 300 3D 1.3m, Ultra Stick 1.1m, or other comparable class designs before attempting to fly the EC-1500 Twin 1.5m.
