From the flight videos, it looked like it was a stable handling aircraft.

My questions are on the powerplants which are very peaky and make near zero horsepower until near full throttle and high rpms.

Unless the pilot had felt a hayabusa powerband, he might get behind the curve.

They are also 1/2 the horsepower of the original design......though a lot lighter.
