I don't really know enough about the Challenger II. My neighbour has one he flies from a grass strip about a half km from me. I did not approach him for a flight as (a) he had a heart attack last year, (b) he doesn't have his strip mowed yet this year and (c) I am not comfortable watching him land. He comes in low and slow over the river. If he has an engine failure, he is going to make a hole in the river bank.
There are so many variables outside general configuration: control type, hardware, positioning of cables, pulleys and bell cranks. I suspect some aircraft fly in spite of their design flaws.
