Well, it flies like a bat out of you know where and, after upping the aileron throws rolls acceptably fast. It does snap out of full deflection loops but that is just a minor irritation. Engine still needs breaking in- flame out on 2 of 3 flights. Glides fast but sink rate is great. Likes to torque left on hand launch- just something to remember. Overall a very pleasing test flight session.

Now that it has proved itself, it's time for paint!

Hats off to JKA for a fine design. The only thing that i'd change on the instructions is that I would install the tank from the front before putting the firewall on- snaking the brass rods through the firewall from the side was a daunting task to say the least.
