It's not a gentle flyer. It is a good model, very aerobatic and quick. I had one (sold it after a season) first powered with an OS 46FX, way too much power, ends up flying between 1/4 and 1/2 throttle except for verticle, not a happy combination for me and my eyes. I then put in an OS 32 and that is about perfect, good power, flies all the maneuvers, and I got to use the whole throttle range in flight. I flew it on 11.5X4 APC prop which helped tame the speed. You will notice it has a fairly thin airfoil which translates into "flies fast".

The wire landing gear is soft wire and you may want to replace it with after market aluminum gear. When you set up the ailerons, be sure to position the upper aileron pushrods close to the position of the tortion rods in the lower wing. This will give the best response. And it doesn't need a lot of aileron deflection with 4 ailerons on this little airplane.

It flies a little differently than a comparable monoplane mainly because of the extra drag a biplane has with two wings, struts and all that stuff, it's not a floater. You will really enjoy this plane when you get it set up for your own flying style.

Enjoy!
