I have the same plane with an OX 1.6FX. Make SURE you have the elevators set on the low rate exactly as the book calls for. I have had many expert pilots fly mine and initially comment on the small amount of elevator throw, but once in the air, they loved it and coudn't believe how stable the plane was and how well it looped with so little elevator throw. You may seem to run out of elevator on landing, as this plane has little drag, like the Extra, and tends to come in pretty hot. Better to come in a little hot, than to run out of flying air five feet off the runway. I have may high rate only set at less than twice the low, and all I can get for 3-d. On high rates, at medium to high throttle setting, my Giles tends to snap or roll out quickly if I put to much elevator command in it. But it is easy to snap on low rates using aileron and elevator quickly, together. Normal tendency for swept wing airplanes that are a little on the heavy side.
This plane flys like a big pattern airplane, like was mentioned previously, except it will snap and tumble as good as my Ultimate bipe. It does beautiful rolling circles, and all of the IMAC pattern stuff, really well, once you get used to its' tendencies. Like the gent previously stated, fly it a couple mistakes high and trim, trim and trim some more. I needed very little aileron and elevator mixing to the rudder, for knife edge flight. You can make this mix, throttle set at above 35 to 50%, so it doesn't interfere with your landings if your using rudder to crab in on cross wind landings.
This airplane isn't really a hovering plane, with a moderate engine like mine at higher altitudes. One guy in my club is using a Saito 1.8 on his, and isn't as vertically challenged as mine is. I had to put a couple ounces of weight on the tail to balance with the 1.60 FX, so a bigger, heavier engine on mine would also incease wing loading. With mine just under 12.5 pounds, the wing loading is about 29.5 ounces per square foot, which is very acceptable for a scale, aerobatic model.
Once you get used to it, try starting with the IMAC basic aerobatic schedule, you won't be disappointed, as it rolls straight, hammerheads well and so on. I have my CG dead in the middle of the recommended range, and like there, with no surprises.
Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine.

Happy Landings,
Mike B.
