->CTLS Free-stick Stability

->Hello Group,
->
->I am checking out possible S-LSAs for future purchase. The
->Flight Design CTLS interests me. If there are any
->instructors, owners, or renters of said model or other Flight
->Design models in the group, I'd like to hear from you.
->
->I've not flown one yet, but am hooking up with some owners to
->do so. In the meantime, maybe some of you who fly them can
->answer my concerns about stability. I've heard from some
->high-time pilots who fly them that hands-off stability is
->marginal (as compared,to,say, a Bonanza).
->
->Questions:
->1) Phugoid: How long and how many cycles?
->2) Free stick stability: In calm air how long can you fly
->without a stick or rudder input?
->3) Free stick stability: In calm air can you maintain
->straight flight with occasional mild rudder inputs?
->4) How is the ride in light to moderate turbulence? (re wing
->loading 12 lbs/sq ft)
->
->Fly safely.
