The Nora is a wonderful plane. There are some modifications I would suggest to a new builder.
- Reinforce the landing gear holes with fiberglass on the inside. The normal holes were wearing out on the first day (no crashes)
- The propeller is supposed to press fit on. Luckily mine flew off on the ground. Glue it in place.
- The gear wheel uses the screw that holds it to the motor mount as a bearing. It should slide smoothly on this screw. Mine threaded on. I reamed it out just enough to slide on the screw (not loose).
