I just got back from flying it. It was a tad nose heavy, so the lipo could be turned sideways and moved back some. AUW was about 8.5lbs, it had about a .9:1 thrust to weight ratio, needed about 50% or more throttle to fly, and it got an 8min fly time with a couple to spare for landing. It was kind of slow and lazy, 35-55mph flying speed range, but could roll, knife edge, and loop well. It would try to roll out of a loop if it is too tight. It lands with about 1/3 throttle to help keep it from dropping on the runway.
Final setup will have a 4000mah 6s right behind and parallel to the firewall with a 5 cell nimh back with the rx to balance it.
