Also, its hard to stereotype a model Viper like that and apply it to all models of that jet. For example, Corsairs and Mustangs can be a handful to fly because they have higher wing loading and while you can scale a model you can't scale an air molecule.
Then along comes Hangar-9 and they thicken up the airfoil, enlarge the control surfaces a touch and make the tail moment a bit longer and all the sudden you have a scale looking warbird that flys like any other sport plane.

So please don't stereotype the Harlock Viper and lump it in with others because it's a different airframe.
