Well, it took me long enough but I finally had the chance to maiden my Stinger and this plane is a blast fly! Take off's are easy as can be and it flys smooth and soild. When you roll the plane, it will stop the roll as soon as you let off the stick. The YS .63 is a good match for the Stinger and I should get more power when I lean it out a bit more. It's a new engine and I'm letting it run rich. I'm using a Master Airscrew prop and I think the performace will be even better when I switch to an APC. You can toss this plane around in the sky and it will do just about everything you want it to and leave you smilin' the whole time. I followed the instructions for the CG and control throws which work well for the way I like to fly.

Landings are really enjoyable. I had a little headwind today and with that thick airfoil the wing has, it just floats in and touches down as nice as can be. This Stinger is a keeper and as others here have noted, will be going with me to the field quite often.
