Chris, I added a picture of the photoetch - pretty standard components. I'd have actually preferred that Very Fire just left the etch and priced the kit lower...

Crazy thing. If you buy this kit from Hobby Easy web store it comes with a wood peel and stick deck. I haven't seen the deck included in any other posts or offerings including this one. The Very Fire web site doesn't indicate that one is included. One of the guys in our club ordered his from Hobby Easy and it did come with the wood deck. So it's not a unicorn.

PE looked pretty complete. You'd have to buy 3 or 4 different PE sets for all the different PE. And, the supplied PE has dedicated and measured railing. I would say that's more than just 'standard'.
