What has been everyone's experience with the flight characteristics of the GP Reflections? Here is some of mine...


This past week I started flying my Reflection that I built about 4 weeks ago. So far I have 27 flights on it. The first thing I noticed that seemed kind of strange is that it doesn't like to slow fly the ailerons through the turns. You are almost forced to turn with rudder. And the plane itself took forever to set up, I was getting tired of it quick at this point.

I stuck with it then at about 10-12 flights I started getting somewhere on the set up. Then BOOM! It was on! Now I can't fly it enough!
It will fly GOOD 45 degree hariers 1 foot off the ground while whipping tight figure 8's so tight right in front of you. This plane just LOVES the rudder! It will do stand still hovering, walking hovers, accelerated torque rolls 4' off the ground back to hover, aileron rolls while low flying the harier, tail touches, tight full throttle loops low to the ground. I am mainly impressed the way I can low fly it with rudder in a harier. I practice launching and flying it ALL under 3 feet, I want to beable to fly in the street, or anywhere at all...

I brought the video camera out this past weekend, but the tripod has a hard time tracking and using the zoom features [:@]

I am flying it so long that the battery died on me after a 19 minute flight during a 2' hover. It just kind of dropped as I attempted to power out of the hover. I now have the timer set for 15 minutes [&:]

The plane is all out fun!

So do share your setup secrets so the rest of us don't have to "tire of it". Regardless, this makes me more excitced for mine.. it's ~85% complete awaiting on some more electronics to arrive....
