With both of you being newbies, who is going to be the instructor?
We currently have no plans to actually use this functionality. My question, at this time, is more a case of curiousity and wondering if we have all the gear to make it work when we do want to use it. With that said, I can envision hooking up the buddy-box setup when we get to the lake in Oklahoma this summer and join my older son (away at University right now) and perhaps let him take the controls a bit with the plane high enough in the air and away from obstacles that even we could recovery. But thats only a notional thought and is several months away. Really, I am just the type (as I'm sure most in this hobby are) that likes to know how stuff works....
