The plane flies great. Well balanced. Not very agile. Kind of like a pig with wings. I can do Cuban 8"s and rolls but you are moving a lot of weight that hangs below the airfoil. So although these manouvers can be done, it's kind of funny watching this plane flop through it!

After about 20 flights I damaged the front cowl and firewall. I strengthened the firewall and used a cowl from a Decathalon ARF that fit near perfect except the top corners. I tried to get parts from Nitroplanes but got no response. I think they only support planes that they have in stock. Poor communication, no support at all.
Too bad. I really like this plane but i think we are on our own as far as replacement parts.

While fixing the firewall I added a hatch to the top and bottom of the fuse. Since I built support beams from the firewall to the next bulkhead I used these surfaces to attach my access panels. Inside the top hatch I built a battery tray. I now have easy access to the tank, control rods, wiring, fuel tubing. This plane is better than ever!

I will take some pictures and post them soon.
