No problem,
I think the biggest thing I noticed, other than the role rate, was that it seemed to be less affected on landings in windy conditions. Doesn't jump around as much anymore. Glad you didn't scrap it, they are a fun plane to build and fly. This was my 2nd plane and first build. Hope everything turns out with the radio gear.
I also have been using the Saito1.00 on mine and it's a rocket.. the header broke right at the head so we put just the header on it tapped for a nipple and the motor just came to life, about 500-700rpms more with but loads of torque.

How much did you have to widen the front of the fuse for the cowl? Did it add any noticeable weight? I love the canopy, I trimmed mine down as well but didn't go as low as you did. Wasn't sure if it would fit right, now that I see yours I may go ahead and trim it some more.
