The Hog Bipe is a great airplane. Mine's about 6 years old, (over)powered by OS91FS with 14/6 APC. The only changes I made were to make a balsa headrest, to mount the engine sideways and build a balsa cowl. I couldn't bring myself to have the head stiking out of the top. Other than that the laser cutting makes assembly easy.
Flight characteristics are good, the aircraft is quite agile. One thing to look out for - they are prone to aileron flutter at high speed.
