This is really one great plane. It will do anything you want it to do - twice. Lots of control surface which gives it excellent maneuverability. The wood that it is made of leaves a little to be desired (it is REAL soft balsa), but the flight characteristics are quite a smoother and calmer than the manual gives it credit for.

On its first flight I managed to fly it through a tree, which are the reason for the patches on the leading edge of the wings. In spite of the "man vs. nature" battle that it went through, the only real damage that it got were 2 small dings in the leading edge of the wing, a stripped rudder servo and a bent (yes bent, the wood didn't break, it just bent) rudder. I replaced the rudder with one made of better wood and made it bigger, and now it is as good as new.
