This is a new release. Does anybody have this? Any feedback would be welcome. Bit hesitant since it's a new developer.

Looks very good and spins my wheel. I guess I could rent it, which is available.

Here's a review.

Yes as this is the first aircraft I would buy if I won the lottery. It's a 1955 Stelio Frati design, a masterpiece in wood that outshines any US Spamcan......sensitive to fly, its a finger and thumb aircraft and watch out you don't stall it. The SF260's father...... It's the best rendition yet of a Falco...............worth my money...... A Nibbio next? One for the gentleman connoisseur who knows what a 'real aeroplane' should be about.........

Yes its a nice one. I did one authentic repaint. It shows D-EEOB and current I-EEOB.

I grabbed that one right after you uploaded it! Looks great!

Are you considering doing any more repaints? There are some fun F8L schemes out there IRL.

Trouble is the developer/s seems to be in hiding - don't respond to the form on the website, and no other way of contacting them -all very weird behaviour considering the effort that has gone into the plane. There was a very minor upgrade a few days ago.

Thanks for the HU on this sale. I hadn't picked it up yet, and for $8 US, I couldn't pass it up. The sounds alone are worth that price. Very nice modelling, excellent flight dynamics (it feels alive), and a nice, analog cockpit with some modern touches that make it a great sightseeing/touring plane. Great addition to the hangar.

Also, thanks for the HU, I picked up I've also bought it...very nice l. I've only had a quick flight but I get this weird nose wheel bounce on landing...maybe my landing technique needs work on this one.

Had this on my list for some time, so now I could not pass it. Wrecked the nosegear on my fist landing, left me wobbling and unable to taxi. Touching down gently and setting the nosewheel down last made it for me. Love the sound of it.
