My first impression, it flys like my old Satio 100 powered Miss America, smooth, stable, and predictable. The stock retracts on the Miss A wobbled terribly side to side, not this baby, the E-Flite retracts are rock solid. Landing is as easy as any large sport plane with the flaps. I did have one surprise, the flaps required no elevator compensation. Slowed to 2 seconds they look great and are very effective.
The 62 ZP popped in a few flips and was running w/o touching the needles in a few more, though it needs almost half throttle to get running while flipping, but thats not even two full tanks through. Idle is great.
DX-18QQ/ AR 1220 power safe DSMX rx with 12 channels in use (4 wings, 2 ele, 1 rud, 1 thro, 1 landing gear, 1 optical kill, 1 light kit, and 1 channel for 2 daisy chained E-Flite servoless payload drops for the drop tanks)
Falcon 22x10 beechwood with the optional aluminum spinner, fit w/o any cutting.
Landing gear are uber cool. Gear doors and gear all plug into the gear box which has a plug-in programming box like the heli flybarless controllers. The machined wheels are fantastic, Goodyear scale tires and all. Pricey but ohhh my....they are sweet.
