Ok, today my Rafale is 7 days old. It flew 9 times. during that time I can feel the character more deep.
I build at 100% scale from Craig Clarkstore design. The spec is 2200kv 2826, 40amp ESC hobywing xrotor micro, switching BEC 3A, 2 EMAX ES08MD, 1 EMAX ES08D, 2x5gr servo. 3000mah 25C 3s battery. All Up Weight about 850gr.
CG in the plan works perfect for me. I apply slightly up on the elevator to prevent nose down. Solid roll, there are no noticeable nose down tendencies in the middle of roll. Tight and responsive loop, thanks to the cannard, but not so tight compared to my thrust vectoring pusher sukhoi. good high alpha performance using reverse pitch canard movement(I can reverse cannard pitch movement by TX switch during flight).

Easy to manufacture and very good flying qualities.
my model weighs 830grs and it is motorized with a 2836/1400, a 6×6 propeller and a 4s 2200mAh battery.
Well done Craig

Excellent plane, it flies at the first attempt even in my case that I was forced to use foamboard and it was a bit heavier, in the same way flew like a fighter jet. i love this design
