Its quick and will do strange things that you wouldn't think an airplane could/should do. This plane seems to enjoy upside down flying just as well as right side up.
Crank the ail lever all the way over an this plane looks like a high speed drill bit going thru the sky

It is quick on the thumbs though, an that is with the cg at the 4" mark.

Just don't try an make this your 2nd plane unless you are pretty good an quick at the controls.

Try an find a calm day for the first flight also. I had about a 8-10 mph breeze today.

But just a fun plane to fly
Try going full ailerion and full rudder whilst going vertical just a joy to watch,then put it in a full spin and just lean on the elevator and you've got complete control again
Amazing Plane
Even mushing around the sky just above idle with a tad of up elevator you can nearly get it just to hover there
Awesome plane[8D]
Cheers
