Yeah Mate I have one of these in my collection. It was my first EPP slopey and it is a good little performer in lighter winds. 12knots seams to be ideal for it. Easy to build and cheap to buy. Down side is the instruction sheet that comes with it. It luckily has pictures in it to help you along.

They say it will fly in as little as 5.5mph wind but it is a hard task to keep it flying. Put ballast in it to fly in winds over 15 knots.
