Default how much will it cost? QQ 102"

Build me a QQ 102" with a DA 100 and canisters. I don't need to try to build a QQ approved super double dealio plane with gold plated wires. I will use 1 G3 RX in it. I have not decided what servos yet. Take a guess. Thanks.

Well, figure this equipment list for most any 35% airplane.

100cc + cannisters = $1450 or so
8 8611 type servos=$800
Hardware= $200?
Batts= Depends on what you run, Fromeco's will run ya $200
Switches=$60 or so
Rx= You run those G3 things right?
Prop+Spinner=$150 more or less
Airplane=$1000

I'm guessing around $4000

Turns out I just bought one last week.
I would say Jim is about right on the money. You can add about $500 to it for 'others'. The 8611s cover the flying surfaces, but you still need a choke, throttle, regs, etc. Cans are about $300, where a standard muffler setup is $165 with smoke option... $145 without. Prop is about $50, spinner is $120 or so. Also a drill guide for the prop is $30, fuel dot $30.
Kit is $1000 (make sure to get the GenII kit). Shipping is about $130 to you.
Optional hardware kit (wheels and other things that are not really optional) $80.

Adds up quickly, but .. there is a reason many of the top pilots fly it in competitions.

I had a chance to fly Jesky's this past weekend and have to say I really liked the way it looked and especially liked the way it flew.
