Red Bull racer turned experimental. Added trib tabs to stabalize aircraft during level flight. Takeoff requires 50% power with constant back pressure until rotation speed of 115mph. You can use Trim Tab to assist (VTOL controls). Aircraft has nose up tendancy above 230mph so use trim tab to help stabalize. The landings are tricky since its a tail wheel. I Recommend landing close to if not lower than takeoff speed and use zero braking. As always have fun!
