Ouch! I think the picture of the top of your model just burned my retinas! But, I sure do like the bottom

I'm still working on trimming my S.E. but my impressions are the same as yours so far. I need to move the CG back a little as I'm running out of elevator on landings. Personally, I don't find the ailerons to be overly sensitive at all even on high rate, but that elevator sure does have some authority!
