Salve,
ready for maiden. If the weather is OK I will do it tomorrow or an Thursday.
dry weight is 9,25Kg (20,4lbs) + 2,5L fuel in a Platypus = 11,35Kg TOW (25lbs)
I think it is easy going for the Merlin 100.

Did you use a little bit flaps down for the take of?
Have you changed the settings of the manual after the first flights, or they are OK?
The expo settings are low (elevator only 10%) is this OK, or is the plane to nervously with this?

Regards
Thomas
