Design Feature:
* Sport scale flying wing with unique diamond airfoil.
* Functional exhaust reflectors at fuselage trailing edge to enhance pitch stability.

Performance:
- Fully aerobatics
- Does very axial roll and even 4 point roll
- Does both inside and outside loops
- Flies invert, stall turn, etc.
- Pretty fast due to the extreme swept back
- Takes off and lands like conventional aircraft
- By moving the CG back 0.25", it is very sensitive around pitch axle and performs very tight outside loop that looks like tumble around the wing axle.
