Only 10 lbs with the gasser? That sounds like a low figure to me???Maybe not. I have flown several of these, only one with a gasser (a quadra 42). The airplane was STILL TAILHEAVY (which I usually go for) but it flew like mud to be honest with you. The snaps seemed to be real washy and the aircraft seemed like it wanted to tip stall at lower speeds. Of course I have flown this model with a satio 1.80 in it and it was FAR too tail heavy ( I had to add a pound of weight and it still "squatted" in air.) I called horizon and they said...hmmmm well I dont know, maybe take the foam out of the back of the aircraft with acetone or move the mount forward. NOT ON AN ARF. If your looking for 3D I would honestly not go there but if you want to learn IMAC it should be alright.
