The SC07 has some very nice characteristics. The steering is quite direct, without allowance, there is no need of great movements to navigate the SC07. At same time the steering system gives the pilot a clear counter forces, which makes it easy to navigate precisely. Over all it can be said, that the SC07 flies like on rails, but without this dump flying behaviour, known from the echo-class. The start is very easy, the climbing power is quite impressive giving you the feeling to hang below the propeller. With the flaps on 15°, the SC07 takes off very quickly. The stall behaviour is excellent and easy to control. The SC07 does not tip over nor even put the nose down, it just looses altitude until you release the elevator in order to accelerate the SC07 above the stall speed. We could bring the SC07 once to tip over, when we had the flaps on 45°, put the SC07 in a curve and at same time reduced the speed down to stall speed. But even then it was very easy to bring the SC07 back to normal position without loosing too much altitude.
