desertrider; the Prolog is a little cheaper becuase it's design is based on the previous airplane called the Monolog so they were able to save most of the development cost, with the Prolog. The Prolog is also a little smaller than the Nuance, and the canopy is a little further back. I have heard the Nuance flies very well, i have yet to see one fly, but hear good things from those who have one.

I flew my Prolog today, and was very impressed by the airplane. The rolls were very axial, and knife edge needed no mixing on either side, it did need some elevator to throttle mix for down lines but most airplanes need this. the plane snap and finishes as soon as you let off the stick, leaving a nice clean line after the maneuver, there are only a few planes that I have flown with the ability to do this. Todd Schmidt's Mystic, and my Spark Evo, the other planes that i have flown needed some opposite rudder at the end of the snap to keep the line.

The plane also held a very good 45 degree upline without much input which leads me to believe that i had the balance just right, spins were also very predictable and stopped as soon as you let go of the stick.

Something else that surprised me was the speed of the airplane, i was running a Himax 210, with a 20.4x14.5 prop, and i was amazed how slow the airplane flew. The wing has a thick leading edge and I believe this help with the slow flight characteristics of the airplane, just looking at it i thought I thought it would fly faster than my Evo, but that was not the case, my opinion the plane definitely flew slower than my Spark, i am now wondering if i can get a set of the wings that are on the Prolog and put them on my Spark. May be a project for later in the year.

All in all i was very happy with the airplane, and will have it throughout the summer, so if i am at a contest and you guys would like to fly it to, i will turn the sticks over, and you can be the judge!!!
