Thought about it, but it is on the edge of OK on the chad staged D12s. If you do not hold at least an 70-80 degree climb, it builds up a little airspeed and gives off a little bit of very high pitched aileron flutter, almost like a strummed electric guitar note.... Easily fixed with a aileron counterweight, I predict.

I am a little tempted to fly it this summer, in its 40th year of existence. Might just convert it to a fixed pod and fly it on a E6 reload.

Still have a Phoenix to build for the 32mm case. Might happen, now that I am retired!
