These are very fun planes. As mentioned they're far from any high-wing trainer/cub style plane. With that symmetrical wing they're very aerobatic, and will do many things even modern aerobats won't. They snap roll on command, knife edge is very easy, although there will be more coupling involved and knife edge will take some serious rudder/aileron manipulation, once you figure out how much of what to command it, you'll see what it will really do. The rudder is very effective as well...very powerful.
This plane has come up several times over the years, and every time I see one, I want to get mine out and give it a once over and go fly. Its one of the classics from the late 80's and 90's that unfortunately was discontinued.. yes probably due the ARF revolution. I got mine over 20yrs ago, and worked on it off and on for a few years, before I finally finished it. I have a .61 two-stroke in it, and it flew very well. That GreatPlanes discontinued list is quite amazing too, there were so many nice kits that they quit making... I've collected many of my favorites over the years though... thinking I'll build them some day... I'm now starting to think I should get busy with them.. I'm pretty sure I have enough of those kits to last me 10yrs if I never bought another plane.
Enjoy.. your in for a treat!
