I flew my Gee Bee for the first time this weekend and it didn't fly nearly as bad as my Byron version. For landing speed and flying all the way down to the deck is the key. Two point landings and the robart landing gear make it fairly easy. I would hate to do a hard landing with the stock gear, I'm sure it would bounce and tip like the simulator. I am also running the Ram onboard glo driver/starter which gives me a great idle and lessons my chances of dead sticking on final.

I had the belly pan not fitting problems also. The wings also had a bad warp in them so each aileron was deflected about 1/8th inch. Called GP and talked to them so I am getting a new wing kit.

Tried loops, rolls, and knife edge flight and has no real bad tendencies. Slow it down too much and it will stall and drop a wing in a heartbeat that will take a little bit of altitude to recover from. When I put a straight wing on it the stall characteristics should be better.
