I got in two flights last saturday...

the cg was 1/2" forward just needed some up trim.

high rate aileron 3/8" produced a good roll rate

high rate elevator 3/8" produced notchy loops, but was usefull on landing considering the CG.

fun little plane to fly

Great looking plane! What does the Jett .30 weigh, put out, etc.? Smaller case than the .35?

The jett 30 and 35 both use the same case as the 25. My 35 with muff is about 14 oz.

Does look like fun, always wanted to build one of those.
