To me, having them build it kind of defeats the purpose as I'm purposely doing an easy kit in order to learn, so I can build harder kits later on. That said, I'm a little worried about the double vision or other MG symptoms causing problems. I was just wondering if anyone else here works with electronics, or finds it difficult to do that type thing.

Just as a side note, if they build it, I'll get it much sooner than if I wait until I've recovered from the thymectomy, and then attempt it myself.

Thanks,
