Well, I found the first con of this airplane, there's not enough time to fly it as much as I want to... The flight characteristics are great. Snaps are clean as are rolls and the only time you get wing rock in a harrier or elevator is if there's a crosswind. But give it a little aileron throw in the direction of the wind and it goes away.

We had four gassers at the renegade field today, which is a record for us. There were 2 bunnies, an Extreme FlightYak and a Goldberg Yak. Three had DA 50's and then there was the lonely 3W 56 twin. After there, I went to show it off at Love Air (local field). Someone else took the sticks while I was out there and was amazed to. Landing wasn't without incident though. The wind was starting to gust and it was a crosswind at that. Well, it blew as I was about to touch down and I went into the grass that someone should've cut. Damage wasn't too bad though. Just gotta bend the gear back and fix a wheel pant. Weather is going to crap tomorrow so I got a week to do a little work. It'll be a nice study break...

I was the luckey someone who got to take the sticks! ... Tom are you trying to send me to the poor house!
Now I got to have one! Axieal roles, Snaps stop on a dime, Harriors kick a$$. Stalls strate ahead. All Up weight with the the 3W-56 twin and 20oz of fuel 18.9 lbs on a didgital fish scale. And the pictures dont do it justice!

The video of the maiden is coming. You might want to make sure you have one of these on hand Tom when Mark picks up his 33% Edge, I think he's sold on it after flying mine today.

Good job Ben I like the way that twin sounds, you did a good job it looks great. Doesn't that extreme flightYak look boring setting next to those Wildhares?

Thanks! Like I said, I'm hoping to get a much more exciting video within a few weeks. Until then, here's a picture of the renegade crew gasser division.
