It seems this orange one did never fly.
There is a YouTube film with the other one taking off.

May I call UV to come up with something?

And what a ghastly looking yoke arrangement with all those cables, pulleys, linkages and such. How clumsy can it get?
Eeeuwww! I feel for the test pilots of that monstrosity.
