“Ordered this glider after I saw the review and flight from Motion at Fall Nall. Great price and I received it in three days (paid 10 bucks for expedited shipping). Upon assembly I noticed some issues. First there is a nest of wires to connect at the back of the battery compartment under the hatch. I realized it would be difficult to attach a receiver and then push all of that back far enough to clear the battery. I decided to re-route all the wires back to the elevator/rudder access hatch. This did require one 6 inch extension for the ESC/throttle wire. I connected my receiver then pushed the wires forward of the hatch and attached the receiver just beyond the front edge of he hatch. This freed up the area under the canopy and made it easier to install the battery. Also the latch pin on my canopy was a little too high and did not connect into the hard point but into just the foam. This was easily corrected with a couple magnets. One more point, I was not comfortable with the horizontal stab attachment. On my plane it wasn't tight and I noticed I could move the stab back and forth about an inch at the tips. I decided to use a small amount of hot glue to mount the hor. stab firmly in place. Be sure and connect the control wire first if you do this. Maidened the plane today and I am very impressed. The plane has very good power for a glider and is really fun to fly. I was also able to get 15 to 16 minutes of flight time on a 3 cell 2200 lipol, impressive. I would have given a 5 star rating but for the assembly issue. I highly recommend this plane.”

“A lot of design improvements in this M/G and I love the enclosed Elv/Rud controls. Plus, the carbon rods and thicker rear fus. are an improvement over previous planes of this type that I have owned. However, I did have a problem with the spinner tip and prop assy flying across the kitchen when i was testing the plane controls. It's a good thing that it wasn't 25 feet over the corn field at the time. The manual says not to use any Thread Locker, but I had the spinner tip on as tight as I could get it with out any tools and it still flew off at about 50 % throttle. So, I reinstalled the prop assy with med. Thread Locker and I hope that I never have the same problem again. I hope to fly it soon.”

“After a little shaky start with my receipt of product (a part and the manual was missing), the over all product is solid. Assembly utterly took about ten minutes and didn't really require a manual with the video available here in the product description. The missing part after contacting motion was sent out the next day and wasn't needed for flight. Not that any builder with any sense will need this but I forgot to put any thread lock on the spinner when I put the propeller on the first go around. Thinking it was tight enough and running the engine up several times it never occurred to me that it would be loose. Half way through a beautiful flight I throttled up and watched the spinner fall from space never to be found again. The wind kept the props back and held them on or I would have otherwise lost them also. Lesson learned. Without a manual I used the old 1/3 wing chord rule and the plane balanced nicely with the 3s pro 2200 battery right in the middle of the strap. This is directly under where the wiring runs through the wings to the fuselage. I programmed in 50 percent and 100 percent on the flaps and I would recommend putting in a small mix of down elevator. Flaps slow this plane WAY down. Also, at full throttle this baby will take itself vertical. I hand launched with out power and had a nice level flight and then kicked the throttle up slowly. It has plenty of power and takes seconds to get to a good flying/sailing altitude. I left all the surfaces at max and feel there is plenty of room for some aerobatics. I gave this product a 5 star for its ease of assembly and overall quality. Your getting a very nice craft for the money and its enjoyable to fly.”
