Default Composite-Arf MX2

I am just finishing my 2nd Compy SuperXtra for IMAC and now looking at the MX2.
I want a plane set-up strictly for Freestyle and like the smaller size of the MX2 on a DA150.
Anybody have any positive / negative reports on this plane?

I wouldn't base my opinion of a plane on just one person's experience...

Monty, Mark Trent has one. Might want to check his thread too.

Getting ready to build another one right now. Set the cg back a little and it is a great plane. I wouldn't have gotten a second one if I didn't think so!

Here is a link to an MX2 I helped put together and had a BLAST flying !
DA-150 on MTW 110K cannisters with Mejlik 32X10 prop.

There is a good video of Jason Shulman flying a green one at, I think, 2006 Top Gun.
