I built one quite a while ago and it's flown twice. The build has unique aspects to it, like the engine mount, but easy enough to follow the steps and build.

You launch it at an angle and my first flight went great. Both gliders "glided" though neither for very long. The best part was they landed within a couple feet of one another.

The second flight did a barrel roll right into the ground. I suspect one of the mothership elevons caused the corkscrew. Damage was surprisingly minimal and since repair it's been a display model.
