Call the owners and talk to them. The Electro owner I know likes to talk about his, but he
also flies it a lot. Here is his OLC logbook for the 2020 season:

Here's the OLC logbook of another 13.5M/FES glider pilot I know: Phil Rose. He flew seven
flights in Ely this year in his miniLak, garnering several state, national, and World records
in the process. He might be a good source of information for choosing the miniLak over an Electro.
And the missing link!
