information. owners of this model should be aware of the built-in design weirdness. specifically, the manufacturer used a less-than optimal offset pusher thrust angle/line; this design mistake results in continual nose-down moment (from the thrust). in order to offset this moment, the manuf used a wonky, lift-making horiz-stab.! the result of this screwiness is a model that flies with continual conflict in its pitch-axis controls. this model is under-prop'd. in part, this is so because due to the use of a wonky thrust angle, a correctly spec'd EP prop would not 'fit'. the type/amount of prop noise indicates that a too-flexible prop has been used for the application. d
Looks super fun
It sure is! You should get into it since you have your actual pilots license; you'd be a natural!

Thanks for the explanation, I appreciate it!
The front wheel assembly is also very weak and prone to damage from rough landings that most other planes would survive!
