Looks like this thing flew back in September

Now I hope the building of another airframe for destructive testing
was a conscious decision for the education of the young engineers
involved and not a stupid Euroweenie nanny state requirement in order
for a one off experimental aircraft to fly. Alternatively just maybe
it is intended as a prototype for a production aircraft. The Mu 31
was based on the ASW27 but not that hard to turn it into based on an
ASG29 (outer wing panels). With the Ventus 3 and JS 3 Schleichers
have competition for the 18m contest market.
Put the 18m tips on the Mu31 and are we looking at the ASG33?
