Flew the ST for the first time yesterday evening. AWESOME ! The plane is very crisp. Goes where you point it, and it stays there. Didn't fly with the SFG's yet but without them this plane will knife edgd the full length of the runway, without ANY roll coupling...just hold in rudder and that's it. Flys pattern maneuvers like a champ.
Seem to come in for landing pretty hot and has a long roll out. I think I need some breaks..lol. I'll adjust. First flight needed zero trim. I did need to tame the low rate ailerons somewhat and increase the elevator low rate just slightly.

The Saito .91 has plenty of power to pull it along. Verticals have a lot to be desired though. I'm not really into 3D, so I'm thrilled with the performance. I was a little concerned about the "tall" tail wheel, but it didn't seem to be an issue. Got in three good flights, along with test flying my buddy's F-90. (I'll take the ST) Can't wait to break this one in and get comfortable with it. I'm sure it will teach me a lot. I hope to get out next weekend to test out the SFG's.

On the last flight, as I was taxing back, the left wheel pant worked loose and fell off as it approached. No Damage!

Real antsy get get this baby out again today, but the forcast is calling for thunder showerswhere I fly, so...[&o]

This is a Great flying airplane...Great Job Mike!
