If I could only convince these newbies how to hold the sticks -- thumb and finger -- rather than thumb on top. That is another story!!
I have been flying off and on for the last 1o years and have always flown with my thumbs on the tops. I assume forefinger and thumb allows for more precise control? Thumb on top just feels better for me, although I'll have to try it on the sim tonite.
Thats funny. I fly my extra and trainers when I am helping people with my thumbs on the sticks but my helo's with thumb and forefinger. I didnt even realize I was doing it till someone pointed it out to me.
