I fly both and cant say that I like one better than the other.  I do know that I have a hard time switching back and forth simply because my left thumb gets a tad lazy from flying planes.  And still being somewhat "new" to both I always fly my heli first...then switch over to my plane/s.  Im sure once I become seasoned, it wont be that big a deal.  However, I punched the heli hard into the ground one time when I needed some rotor correction and did the input with my right thumb.  Can you say THWACK! lol
