My best advice is go to OSH and meet some owner/builders camping there. They are almost always happy to share experiences and they tend to know other models they would “build next time.”

You might also consider the RV15. Kits will probably start rolling out in the fall. It will be more money but the aircraft will be considerably more capable than a KitFox. You will get the extra expense back when you sell it.

Then the game of "what is Dudes username on APC" can begin.
I think it actually helps there, you have to login and post under your real name.
Cuts way back on the blowhard BS
