ok got 3 more flights in yesterday, i can finally say i'm very comfortable with the airplane and have tried just about ever maneuver with it. I now have about 10 flights in total

Hits:

This thing really does harrier with no wing rock! wow.

It only took me a couple tries to get into some perfectly locked in KE Spins... its never been this easy!

Misses:

My canopy started cracking today, i did Pacer 540 canopy glue on front and back but used screws on the sides of the canopy, and the crack started from one of the screws... already made it 2" up... anyway glue is the best for long term performance i would guess, that glue has never failed me on a model yet....

I still can't seem to find that "spot" where it likes to do the rolling harriers really smoothly... you know how some planes just lock in and roll like butter? Haven't gotten there yet, but i'm sure they'll get better

I've been waiting to report this one, but now after 10 tanks I'm sure... When you apply a lot of elevator, this thing snaps, just like "Caps" do. if you let the airspeed bleed off it will stall straight forward, but i notice pretty much every time i want to pull hard to the vertical, or pull hard out of a dive it'll drop a wing really quick. This really drives me nuts and i always feel like I have to caress the darn thing to come out of dives. It you're doing really big smooth IMAC type flying its no big deal, but it honestly will snap on you at any speed if you pull up too quick. So heres what i'm going to do since no one else has reported this yet- 1) check my lateral balance again. 2) check my elevator halfs to make sure they are perfectly alligned 3) try to get the cg farther forward as I still think this would make the biggest difference. I still have not moved it forward since the first flight because I do not want to add dead weight to the airplane, i think i'm going to take the stock tail wheel system off and do something lighter.

I am really enjoying the plane besides this major point and look forward to getting it worked out.
