Strengths:
Very well built, top-quality covering (no wrinkles anywhere), easy assembly. Clever sliding battery tray makes setting the balance point a doddle. And it flew hands off first time with no trims needed. .
Weaknesses:
I beefed up the undercarriage and its mounting area, also discarded the spats - more or less essential if you fly from a bumpy grass strip. . . .
Overall:
Mine is powered with an Axi 2814/10 and 3s 2300 lipos, which is probably over the top for this very light model. It takes off in less than 2 metres on half throttle; does all the aerobatics that I am capable of; and will also stooge around looking beautiful if you just want to relax. The most fun for the least money!. .
