Quite a while since I flew one but....
Simple, well mannered. No ball of fire but one of the 'easiest' taildraggers. If it has flaps they do not do much.
Short range as noted but there was a Rollason mod for an enourmous 'slipper' tank which could be fitted. My friends aircraft was the one prepared for the London Sydney race and had the slipper tank and the bed mountings in the fuselage. So those mods should be easy to get LAA approval on. My friend moved the battery which much inproved the CofG range, I suspect most aircraft now have this mod.
Usual things to look at for the engine, the brakes are Jodel like, have a careful look at the undercarriage, the tracking often goes wonky due to the undercarriage legs and internal blocks wearing. Wrinkled legs are not uncommon.
Other than that most parts can be built if you have to!
