YES, I actually have a video of the CARF Gee Bee flying with a Moki 215.
I wish I could find the link - I would share it with you. IF you get me your email, I will send it.

The plane flies well and does not appear to exhibit any obious ill handling.

I did the weight calculations, and comparing a 3W157 with canisters to a Moki 215, there is only a 1.3 pound difference.
So, the increase in wing loading is not super significant.

As you would expect, the sound and look is simply fantastic.
