Bruce,
I have spent the past four weeks or so re-training myself on the G3. Once I am up its fine, ground handling is hard for me because I have raced 1/5 scale cars for so many years, steering with my left thumb not my right. Anyway I seem to have taught an old dog a new trick. So I think I now fly Mode 1, Elevator/Airlerons on the right stick, Throtle/Rudder on the left. I have just developed a bad habit of flying without using the rudder[X(] I suppose that will have to be a skill I develope over time. I seem to be recycling aircraft pretty quick through one thing or another so I am moving away from the SS40 and trying my luck with the WM Super Stunts 40 or 60 varient next.

Chuck,
They should be banned from the whole country, they run without any sound supreshion so the DBA is horendous, plus they never seem to sleep. They are actuly based on a rotovator with the blades removed and a tow hitch.
