I've built my fair share, and I tutored a beginning electronics class that built 12 models, including their final model, which was used in a competition at the end of the semester.
Their programs were actually very well written for a class who had never seen a programming language. I strongly recommend NQC over the drag-and-drop bits, it is quite easy.
