Default Seagull Models Edge 540

i also maiden ed today.. running a ASP.91 2 stroke 14x6 prop
after running in the engine at the field(4 tanks) it was time to fly....
ive only ever flown funflys so i didnt know what to expect .....it was being flown with the cowl off for extra cooling..... it flew nice the wind was blowing about 15-20 mph it didnt seem that fast(i thought it was going to be faster) but with the cowl off its like having a wall at the front the size of the firewall.....

it didnt seem to hold a knife edge just kept dropping the rudder is set to maximum movement(nearly touch's the elevator)????

had 4 flights in total and 3 HARD landings(bent the undercarriage) but i just bent it back.....i will be putting on the cowl ready for next sunday

also found that if i put full up elevator it loops rolls over and flys in the other direction without any other inputs just elevator anyone else have this???
