Departing from Reichelsheim Airfield, the XCub aircraft began its takeoff roll on runway 36, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 85 kt. The aircraft cleared the runway threshold in 387 meters, utilizing 31% of the available runway length. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 16 °C, with a gentle headwind of 6 kt from a direction of 12 °.
As the aircraft transitioned into the enroute climb phase, it began to ascend from 1,300 ft above sea level, reaching a maximum altitude of 1,223 ft above sea level in a short 1-minute period, covering a distance of 2 nm. The climb phase was interspersed with periods of level cruise, including a 3-minute segment at an altitude of approximately 1,572 ft above sea level, during which the aircraft covered 6 nm. A second climb phase commenced 1 mile south east of Rockenberg, resulting in a significant increase in altitude from 1,572 ft to 2,411 ft above sea level, covering a distance of 5 nm in 2 minutes.
Upon approaching Pfingstweide Airfield, the XCub aircraft initiated its final approach to runway 28 from the south east, descending from an altitude of 1,233 ft above ground level. The aircraft touched down at a speed of 56 kt, utilizing more than 50% of the available runway length. The touchdown point was slightly misaligned from the centreline, and the runway rollout alignment also deviated from the centreline by 8.0 m. The total landing distance was 364 m, exceeding the runway length by 122%. The aircraft utilized 4 kg of fuel during the 9-minute flight, covering a total distance of 15 nm.

The final approach to runway 28 at EDEV Pfingstweide Airfield from the south east was initiated at 1 nm and 1,233 ft above ground level, with a heading of 316.0°. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height achieved. However, the threshold speed was well above the target, reaching 64 kt, which may have been a result of the aircraft's approach configuration or the pilot's decision to prioritize a safe touchdown over a precise landing.
Upon touchdown, the aircraft used more than 50% of the available runway, resulting in a long touchdown point. The touchdown speed of 56 kt was slightly faster than desired, and the touchdown rate was firm at -372 fpm. The runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.4 m from the centreline, which was also reflected in the runway rollout alignment, which was slightly off-centre by 8.0 m. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 15 °C and a 5 kt headwind, did not appear to have a significant impact on the landing.
The total landing distance of 364 m was 122% of the runway length, indicating that the aircraft could have benefited from a more precise approach and touchdown. Despite this, the pilot demonstrated a safe and controlled approach, and the aircraft was able to come to a stop without incident. Overall, the landing was scored 73.5%, reflecting the satisfactory approach quality and safe touchdown, but also the long touchdown point and slight misalignment during rollout.
