Coolbean, a reviewers use of the word "docile" is very subjective. Docile compared to what? If the reviewer was expecting the plane to be barely controlable, but it then ended up somewhat flyable, it's easy to see why he might call it "docile". A review of the same plane, but written by someone with little experince, might be entirely different. When reading such reviews it's important to consider the experience level of the reviewer. If he has years of experience flying lots of different kinds of planes, he has acquired the necessary experience to know what to do if something isn't right. He will also instinctively avoid doing the things that he knows will lead to trouble. It would be very difficult for a person who has only flown 3 other planes to have this kind of experience. While it's possible that the OP might be successful, it seems that the concensus it's better to save a plane such as this for when one has more experience.
