Hi Matt,

In my personal opinion, you are worry too much about it. Yes, you will see some speed increase, and some different flight characteristics (at various speeds) due to the heavier wing loading. However, the sticks works the same, they just have to be moved 2-3 times quicker. If you are flying "ahead" of your current airplanes rather than "behind" them (just keeping it off the ground while you throw the sticks around) it sounds like you will do just fine!

My only concern is that you will be sorry you didn't go to something a little more aerobatic (like a clipped wing cub) rather than the kadet.
