Needs trim controls. Far too front heavy to not have them. Also needs ground steering controls. It acted like it wanted to turn at 60-90 ish mph, but at taxi speeds, there was zero turning radius.
It is a great looking design, and flies well, though I did notice that if you engage autopilot while ascending, the aircraft would begin to tumble nose over tail and I was unable to reestablish control. Engaging the autopilot while level eliminated this problem, but because it is forward heavy, the aircraft decends rapidly while autopilot is engaged.
Overall, I enjoyed this aircraft. It has a nice heavy feel when making turns, and it landed well. Aesthetically, it is a gorgeous plane.
