well i took it out for the maiden. it flew much better than i thought it would, it required only a click of up elevatorto fly hands off (to my amazment).
from a performance standpoint the plane is amazing for only costing $75 (for the airframe) it took about 25 hours to complete. the plane can fly amazing slow, w/ flaperons i bet i could walk beside it. my dinky engine will pull it around fine at 1/4 throttle, although it only has about 150 foot vertical if you are putting around at 1/4 throttle, gun it, andinstantly go vert. which isnt horrible. IMHO the 11x4 was not as good as the 10x6 (under proping it) , i think this engine will be able to handle a 11x5. i will try it this weekend.
if you have a bunch of old servo's, are looking for a beater plane, and have a old .40 or .47 this is the plane to get
i also had 2 oz up front, it was nose heavy and i will take .5 off at a time and see how it performes
