trangitsch (verified owner) –
Can’t say enough good things about this plane. It was a joy to build. There is enough instruction to get you where you need to be but not so much that it feels like your hand is being held. It came out well balanced with a perfect CG. I just did the maiden flight this morning and it flew really well. I did not have to trim it at all. It does great at various throttle speeds. It flies well at slow speeds which gives this novice pilot a lot of time to react. I think it will also be great at faster speeds when I get the nerve to throttle up a bit.
I also want to commend Stevens Aeromodel for excellent customer service. There was a small error in kit I received and it was fixed in a very expedient manner. I will definitely be ordering more kits from this company.
