Cough

The Mini-nimbus combined a Standard Cirrus fuselage and tail, so *Std
Cirrus* cockpit, with Glasflugel Mosquito wings and Glasflugel style self-
connecting controls. The C version had the late Std Cirrus tailplane
(with elevators, not all-flying tail). Lighter carbon wings were a
factory option.

So, probably not a good fit for the OP, though the one based at my club
seems to go very well and accumulates a lot of hours each year.
