Thanks bjaffee for your comment. I hadn't flown for 27 years and since I have several aircraft, my goal is to get some 'stick-time' on this glider before I put the others at risk. Being out of the sport for so long I'm trying to get up to speed with all the new equipment etc. I read somewhere I think it was on the 'Proving Ground' Website where having the primary controls on the right stick is similar to flying full scale stick aircraft. Although my first flights were not totally successful I was elated that I was able to recover....twice. I also found out rather quickly, it's hard to tell when one of these electric motor jobs quit when you can't hear them. ha-ha
