I've had mine for about a year and worked on it off and on. I finally got to test fly it today and I tell you, for a lower end pattern plane, it flies very well. I trimmed it for hands off and will fly straight until you get back on the sticks. Our club field is too small so I had to fly it at the airport. I decided on a Super tigre G2300 converted to gas. It turns a APC 17X6@ 8800 RPM and weighs 12LB 8OZ full of fuel. The ST2300 pulls the plane nice.
BTW, my dad owns TxRCplanes and lent me the plane to evaluate. I think I'll keep it.
