I like the looks stukkend, but wonder if there would be balance issues if flown 1 up?

Please advise site... Would like to see some more on this trike... (not that I can afford 1, but it looks far more social than the tandem setup....)

Jenya had a sided by side Maverick trike at Petit a few years ago, I once flew it - Went lekker, very stable - Only difference was rudder pedals working like cesna (opposite to trike)
