It looks as if it flies nicely though, didn't seem quirky.
If it flies like a real one then its a pleasure to drive. I have quite a bit of right seat time in the Fuddy Duddy.
Sounds like it doesn't fly like the original. Roll control was different as well. In one of the videos he explains that he removed the factory reduction gearbox to fit it in the cowl, so yes, it's an rpm thing.
