I built one of the two I got from AC Supply and have really been enjoying flying it. I have 15 flights so far in various combinations of single stage and two-stage with and without the glider.

The big payload section is nice and the glider flies surprisingly well. Mine circles fairly tightly, but when flying it on a B to B two-stage flight that's a GOOD thing.

I haven't flown it C to C yet (with or without the glider). Maybe without the glider at NARAM. Interestingly it flies about as high B to B as it does single stage on a C, with the single stage configuration having a slight edge (using data I have so far). Putting the glider on costs about 20% in boost altitude.

Lots of ways to fly it and it works well.

I like it!
