Nice one, John...

Here are two videos of it in flight, looks like a steady slow flyer.

Andrew_D, the designer, is flying the first one, maybe he can give some clues about trimming.

Nice job on the model.  I flew the particular model in the clip at the weekend and it still goes well.  Believe it or not it needed tailweight.  To avoid this give the prop a good scraping and lighten it up as much as you can...

It trims very easily.  There is down thrust built in and a bit of right thrust and left rudder is enough.  It is very stable and benign.
