I have found the Giles 202 to have a lot of bad tendencies, but it could have just been the one I flew.
It wasn't just the one you flew.

That is absolutely THE nastiest, meanest, most miserable creation ever devised to be given the label ''airplane''.
A guy at our club had one. One day just after take off, he went inverted and got to slow and went into a spin.[] Broke the right wing in half and broke the fuse in half. He said if it was a better flying plane with no bad habit, he would rebuild. ( now he is looking for a new plane, I think he is glad it crashed so he could get another one) I guess since it has such a narrow wing that it need a lot of airspeed.[&:]
