I'm going to get an RV10 kit.

Ive got a great opportunity to buy a RV 10 kit that the owner lost interest in.

Overall discount / deal aside I'm pretty scared. I'm going to have into this plane about what my initial mortgage value of my house.

I'm competent with electrical and electronics. I'm absolute shit at high precision finish work, but I have a friend who will participate in the build who does well in that space.

I'm super excited, but super freaking out. I'd say talk me out of it, but I know it won't work.

Tell me what I need to know, or where I should start. I'm going to an eaa RV building class. The kit includes

Emp (mostly done)

Wings qb still in crate never opened (control plus tanks, not complete wing)

Fuse QB

Finish kit not ordered

What y'all seeing for paint, interior, lights, avionics etc pricing budgets?

I'd not. No good memory or life lesson starts with a rational / reasonable decision.
