A guy at my field has one and it seems to fly nicely. I had one of their C202 Folgores, flew very nice and stable, I had a lot of fun with it right up to the point when the wing snapped in two and it spun in. Oh, it was the first flight and 8 or 10 minutes into the flight. Granted, I had a YS 91 and 14 X 8 prop and I like to yank and bank alot, this was the first wing I had snap on me. The wood used is very thin and soft. If you get one, beef up the spar for starters.

I have one w/ about 100 flights on it. Using an OS91 4stk. The only complaint I have is the plastic is a little thin and will break eventualy. I used a set of retracts from a WM Mustang and they work great. Plane is extremley stable & fast. I ran thin C/A along all the seems of the covering w/ I assembled it, and have never had any issues w/ covering. It stays tight in the sun too.
Take off is 3/4 throttle and hands off till ready for rotate, then just a touch of up and away she goes. Lands better than any warbird I have ever flown. Flies very much like the WM Mustang.
The quality is not what some others are but the value is high w/ you consider cost.
BTW, did I mention I like it.
