Gary Jones (TX) also made a few slight mods that he calls "DragonStik":
He added another set of wings (tandem wing), left out the horizontal stab, and added a 12 inch tail boom extension.
RC functions are elevons, rudder, and throttle. The GWS DX-A (supplied in kit) turns a GWS 10/4.7 prop and an 8-cell 150 mAh NiCads provide plenty of power.
It flies VERY slowly and is rather strange looking.

Ed Couch (Canard-stick) got to see it fly and he reports that:
Aircraft flies full house with coupled ailerons and rudder. Gary say it flies kind of funny when uncoupled in that the aft wing initiates the turn and the forward wing catches up when its good and ready to make the turn. Fly coupled and the roll control is fairly normal, pitch control normal.Dr. Sandy Frank also saw it fly and he adds that:
"it fly looked like dragonflies mating in the air."
