Default What is this plane?

I purchased this plane advertised by the seller as a NE Aero Sport 40. It was built from a kit and originally had a single aileron servo. It now has two aileron servos. I plan to use this plane as a low wing trainer. The particulars are as follows :

1. Wing span = 60 in.
2. Wing cord = 11 in
3. Length = 44 in
5. With a wing area of 660 sq in and a weight of 5.5 pounds, the wing loading is 19.2 oz/sq ft

Thanks. It was called the Sport-Air .40, which caused a problem in finding it.

it's a nice flying plane,properly set up no bad tendencies.it can be fast in that it can get ahead of you if you don't pay attention.it will track like on rails and responds instantly to control inputs.has alot of ground clearance for grass fields.I have a webra blackhead .40 in mine and it flies simillar but faster than my old vk cherokee with a blackhead .61
