When I first read the beginning post I was going to suggest letting someone help you along because of the wing difference . But then you showed me the low wing trainer and I thought hmmmmmmmm I haven't even flown a low wing yet.

I'm working on a DEB spad that has a high wing without dihedral. I'm going to order my low wing probably a composite or the Global Tequilla sunrise with in a week or so..... How ever I feel you should know how to trim your plane while flying by now . I have to do this almost every time I fly my trainer. So I suggest you let some one trim it out for you being that this plane is huge and then have them teach you how to trim it when its in the air.

Good luck I was going to buy this plane but I think its to much to handle for 9 months experience.
