(buyer be aware) at :52, the main wing has Positive aoi; this is a less, energy efficient configuration. at 1:57, the use of a curved vert-stab leading edge is a Not recommended. at 2:10, WRONG. the control horn and linkage alignment Should be Perpendicular to the hinge line. at 2:38, WRONG. there should be NO Bends in pushrods; unless Absolutely necessary. at :52 and 5:26, an Optimal thrust line/angle has Not been used; this Wonkiness is a factor in the dive at launch behavior. googletranslate
