Hey Gauravag;
Flying is great; you just have to work a little bit on diff. aileron and roll-yaw coupling; always with radio mixings. Just put the CoG where the plan say and will be OK for almost any maneuver. Low speed is gentle and lands very very well with high angle of attack.
Woods quality of mine is great; also accesories except for the landing gear (poor alluminium, i replaced with carbon fiber). I replaced also the wheels.
I don't even like the wing attachment nor the canopy attachment; but they're OK, It's just I don't like. I will chance them as soon as I can...
What engine are you planning to use on it? What radio?
Here is a video of a TO with teh Supertigre 90; no videos available yet with the OS 1.20. Servos on mine are: S3003 and hitec HS-695MG for rudder.

Cheers!!!
I plan on using a Saito 125 ( same weight as a OS 91 FX ) . I have a Futaba 10C, so mixes should not be an issue. What servos have you got on yours ? I am thinkning Futaba Digital S3050 on the rudder and Digital standard on other controls. Did you need any weights to balance this ? Oh did you put a OS 1.20 AX on it ? I have one of these lying around, and if they can fit, it would be awesome ! .
Let me know if the weight or fitting in the cowl would be a problem with this engine.
I wish they made the canopy transparent though.
