Cool little lawnmower!!! A true horror on crosswind take offs and landings...I can tell you!

How does it glide? Not as good as a true glider, but thanks to the lightweight build not bad at all.

I like the reflections and bumpmapping on the plastic surfaces of the interior, very well done!

Okay a short summary on it on my experiences so far:

Pros:
- Great model, visuals, effects
- best flightmodel of an ultralight I´ve had so far, very close IMHO as far as possible. Quite tricky, too.
- great sound
- Simply fun for low and slow
- Price is just fine
- no framerate hit at all

Cons (just personal impressions), no important cons actually:
- "Only" six (one blank for repaints) textures/variations
- variations only differ in details

I do enjoy it a lot at the moment, if you are into ultralights a little or just want to fly something quite different (even compared to small general aviation birds) this might sure be of
interest!
