The Velocity kit had some deep-stall problems where the aft wing stalled due to excessive aft CofG location and recovery wasn't possible. The ensuing glide was slow and survivable except when the a/c rolled inverted.

They fixed it with wing cuffs and CofG limitation.

I'm not an expert, just an avid reader and enthusiast of the experimental genre.
