Default A Question about Wind......

I am currently flying a slow stick, attempting to learn to fly on my own and with the help of a 1/1 pilot. Due to my location, the trade winds are now blowing and will continue to do so for several months. These are not strong winds (10-15mph), but they are strong enough to make flying the SS impossible.

Are there any modifications that I can make to aid in the ability to fly in these winds, or is there another foam PF that would be better suited, such as the E-Starter or something similar?

I really like flying, but am going through a prop a day, due to wind gusts 'kiting' my airplane and sending it into a spiraling dive.

Any help would be appreciated.
