Hi Fred, I've had one of these for years. Mine has a big ol' SuperTigre glo in it....about the power of a G-23....18/6 prop. It flies great and lands easily with full flaps. I don't find slow speed flight to be any particular problem...maybe others have been over weight or too aft a CG??? The only thing I don't like aabout it is the fact that it's BORING to fly. Yeah you can do loops and rolls and touch and go's. Kinda like flying a low wing trainer but the planform with all the curvy stuff is so pretty. Mitch
