Well maybe so, I am just one of those who likes to pilot a plane as if it were real, Nice straight take offs, climb outs, etc, Not gun it and yank(though I have done that with the LT-40). When you gun it and yank, it looks like you dont know how to fly. I make some very nice take off and landings. nice and straight, raise the tail then slowly get the gear up and a nice gentle climbout and turn away. Then I get wild and toss it about the sky to see if a wing will snap off(it did once too). So when I see little wheels I see a plane doing a nose over on take off. the only plane I ever was able to harrier land was a T-34 with the droops on the wings, into a head wind. Was quite amazing to see too. Everything else I land fast, and little wheels mean it winds up on it back the first bump it hits. All my planes have 3" wheels or larger. I also dont hand launch, I have this funny vision of the plane looping over my hand and getting stuck in my butt(that and a shoulder injury prevents me from doing so).
