FREYA EVO

"It's a winner"

Update- If you are using a pressurized fuel system, please sand the back inside edge of the frames that are facing the fuel tank. The tank can touch the frames when expanded, causing chaffing. 

Flying report-     

    Wow! This machine is a joy to fly. Everything is effortless. The best way I can describe it would be to say that "it is easy on the thumbs". The controls are crisp and precise, but never twitchy. I highly recommend that you look at Ron Lund's report on the build of this machine. He takes setting up a machine seriously and I encourage each of you to do the same. It is worth the effort!
