Default CMP Cap-232 80"

I am thinking about getting the CMP Cap-232. I have a 42cc w/ei that should be perfect for this plane and I would like to know it anyone out there has built and flown on. It is being sold by Giant Sacle Planes for $199.00

I have not yet decided. It looks really good, but know has repsoned to this so I don't know if that means the planes is no good or it is just new enough that know has flown it yet. I am also looking at the CAPX by Chip Hyde. That plane looks really good and Chip says it will fly on a 35cc to 50cc gas. I have a 42cc that should be good on either plane, but right now if I don't get anymore responses about the CMP Cap-232 I'll more than likely get Chip Hydes Cap-X.

Just for your info. A APC 16x8 prop is a better prop for the Brillelli 25GT on the CMP Giles-202. I flew it today with the APC 16x8 prop and she fly's much better.

I had a APC 17x6 prop on it. it flow OK, but kind of slow for a plane of this type.
