Default GP Ultimate 3D!!

Hey everyone,
I wanted to share this plane I built with my fellow enthusiast. I took this 40 size GP Ultimate kit and modified it a little. Here is a run down of what I did:
-- Added two bays (approx 6") to each wing tip.
-- Using Dual aileron servos mounted on the bottom of the lower wing.
-- Using dual elevator servos mounted on the fuse side at the rear of the fuse.
-- Using pull/pull rudder set up.
-- Using a OS 91fs.
-- Using dubro fiberglass landing gear (added after pics taken)
-- Using a 16 oz tank mounted in the fuse at the CG.
-- Using a horizontal stab from a 3d giles.
-- Increased the aileron size by 25%
Finish weight is just a hair over 7lbs.

It flies like a dream... It will knife edge all day. It will hover and torque roll well. It will also flat spin very well. It floats well too, but will tip stall if I push it.
So what do you think?
