See the note above from randallm. He has the actual model and says the FMS version is very close to the real thing. As a warbird aileron trainer, you should expect the airplane to be capable of any and all combat maneuvers of the era. So the airplane will be quite fast compared to slower 3 channel trainers. That said, everyone who flys the T-28 Trojan remarks on how well it flys at half throttle. So, you may want to reduce the throttle a bit while you practice.
To execute a turn with a 4-channel airplane that has Aileron, Rudder, Elevator and Throttle (A/R/E/T);
1) move the aileron control in the direction you would like to make the turn banking the airplane in the direction you want to go and pull back a bit on the elevator to keep the airplane from losing altitude.
2) some flyers would also say to add a little bit of throttle to keep the model from slowing down and a little bit of rudder in the same direction as the aileron to "coordinate" the turn.
3) once the airplane is turning, the aileron/rudder sticks should be able to be centered depending on the model.
4) to exit the turn, just before you have reached your destination direction, use opposite aileron/rudder to level the airplane and release any elevator/throttle you added during the turn.
