Oh, Yes I did!!

19oz. with out the battery. 10x4.7 slow apc prop hovers better then I usually do

. Knife edge tucks a little to the landing gear. I Landed in some ruff turbulence, the grass grabbed the left wheel and spun it around over 90 degrees and dragged the right wing tip, just a little scuffed up.

Same thing happened with my Mini Funtana 2 years ago and shattered the stringers on the fuse, very fragile. I ended up sheeting the sides of the fuse with 1/16 in balas. I'm just comparing the strength of the AirfoilZ to the Funtana weight about the same, and the Airfoilz is larger as well.
I'm very happy with it.
