N1EDM, So far I've used three or four different accelerators with foam safe CA, all seem to work about the same and so far none have harmed the foam or finish. I would say you LHS is giving it to you straight.
hobbydude214, maybe none of your regions best pilots like the flight charectistics of the Flatouts, but John Glezellis seems to really like the Reflection quite a bit and thats good enough for me. If any of your friends can outfly John Glezellis in a contest, then I'll start listening to their opinion. Opinions are easily given out, but valid ones are backed up by results. John is one of the few that can equal or beat Quique Somenzini, that would qualify his opinions as worth listening to. As for my opinion, which anyone can take or leave, the Relection is a very good flying foamy. It's very honest flying, with almost no coupling in any axis. It crashes reasonably well, and repairs easily. Anyone doughting it's abilitys should download the 2005 Etoc vidio of Sean McMurtry's prototype flying. It flew as well or better than anything else there, certainly better than the winners flight. My son can easily reproduce almost all the manuevers that Sean did at the 2005 Etoc with our stock and rather overweight, by Etoc standards, Reflections.
