Luke21,
My second plane was a Sterling Spitfire with a Super Tigre .75 2 stroke. I had no problems. She flew great. There are some things you should know. Takeoff: Set throttle trim at about half. A bit of right rudder. Power up gradually. Don't take off until the tail comes up and you know you have air speed. Bring throttle trim to full. Climb straight ahead and don't begin turning until you are safely above the ground. Minor bits of rudder input with aileron use will make turns easier. Once in the air, enjoy your twenty minutes or whatever your flight time is. Get used to the plane. Trim it out if you need to. Landing: Line up with the runway. Gradually bleed off power while coming in low to the runway. Bring throttle trim to half. Don't try to make carrier landings. Once the mains touch the ground, cut power, allow tail to set down, pin tail and taxi back. You are never done "Flying" a Warbird until you shut the engine off! My first Spitfire takeoff was a bit wobbly, but I did not panic. I nosed her down a bit, got airspeed and proceeded into the burning wild blue. I love Warbirds and fly them regularly. Good luck!

"Keep 'Em Flying!"
