Default RE: GP Cessna, maiden flight

I have one powered by a Saito 70. It flies well even after tangling with heavy weeds which separated the wing and one attempted flight with aileron servos set backwards. Easy to repair. The noise gear is soft. I just straightened it yesterday in preparation for the third season. It's a good plane. No tip stall tendancy noticed. No tips either. They came off with early misadventures. Wheel pants were removed and larger wheels were added for operation off grass. In fact I have a backup on the shelf if / when it's needed. I'm not a fan of GP kits, but have been happy with several of their ARFs.
