have been flying an Atom for about a week now.
On the first take off (with no expo) it was so quick that it was a shock.
It now has about 18 flights on it and, even with 25% expo in aileron and elevator, is still extremely quick (I have to fly my TREX 450 right afterward to calm down). Power to weight is outstanding. As mentioned by others, the motor is barely warm after a flight, and the speed control is about ambient temperature.
Emag remrofni flew it at Buzzin the Border and really did a nice job of wringing it out (at 14 he is about as good as the factory fliers for Align, Avant, ElyQ that were out there).
Things are still getting broken in at this point.
More to follow, as it gets flown more
