Default N203JJ is flying

First flight today. Good smooth hop. Aircraft very stable, benign stall characteristics. Easy to fly. Understandably, not as responsive as my RV-7A but definitely flies like an RV. Kit #40290, slow build, completely painted, all fairings on the aircraft. Weighs 1 pound less than Van's RV-10 with the Lycoming OI540-D4A5 (AeroSport Power) and the Hartzell blended airfoil prop. We are really going to love this airplane. Jim and Jim
