In a 2015 review, Werner Pfaendler wrote, "The Genesis G1sa Solo has been designed with stability and agility in mind. The centre line thrust and the design of the empennage in the propeller slipstream reduces all throttle reactions. The result is a fun machine which is very stable in flight while being very agile and maneuverable."[1]
