Arthur, Your advise is sound!
I had a very similar experience on sunday. Fortunately I had 2 co-pilots standing next to me and they were able to talk me back into controllable sight.
And yes, this can happen in less than 10sec.
if I have one complaint on this monster it is visibility, the color scheme can be very tricky when you get out there a bit.
Ps. tried the dolly on sunday and it worked great and just added some fun to the flight. I recommend it
