I am planning a trip to Alabama for the BPA meet. I also have an Atlanta
that I will bring. Unless you flare to almost critical angle of attack
you need ~200 feet of rollout area if the runway is paved. I mixed a
touch of "spoileron" into the retract channel and it works wonders. I am
in the process of crunching numbers and testing props to see what works
best (trading off some speed for increased vertical performance).
Whatever I choose it will still be fast, it's just the way the airfoil
and fuse were designed.

Have fun!
