I have over twenty 10 min. flights on the plane now.

The lifting tail works well in a narrow speed range. With the new DLE-35 engine the plane will do a climb when the throttle is advanced to about half to three-fourths, but will start to pitch down at WOT.

I made a new stab with a symmetrical airfoil and I like it better.

Next I'll play with the top wing incidence to see how much I can remove and still get good low speed performance.

The landing speed is so slow it is ridiculous, I love it.
