Summary

To see it flying click the video button or watch it on You Tube
First of all: Yes, it flies wonderful, easy to fly with surprising self stabilisation. But a little bit faster than motor glider generally use to fly ;-)
And the best off all: It lands by itself...
In the meantime it learnt to land more softly and got strong wings: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:98954
