Default x-it combat wing

Does anyone one have experience of flying the x-it combat wing from irvine?

I have bought one to replace a zagi which I lost but I can't get it to fly anything like as good as the zagi.

The c of g seems a long way aft so I have piled loads of ballast into it.

With the zagi i had complete control to confidently zoom around the sky (ok so i lost it but I was confident till then), but the x-it is just a struggle to keep airbourne a lot of the time. When the wind is strong it stayes up ok but penetration is poor.

Have i got something wrong or is the zagi just a better design?

If anyone could give me some help before i give up on it and splash out on a new zagi i would be very grateful.
