Q500's are not good follow ons to your trainer. And seldom work well in that way unless you are working with an expericanced mentor. They do not work well when flown in a conventional manner for example takeoffs are typically done with full throttle wound up before someone performs the release. Slow throttle up takeoff most often end up in the weeds.

Conversely they do not land well with the engine running. Angin attempts to do so usually end up in the weeds. SOP for landing quickees is to shut down the engine completely in the pattern and then circle tightly from the approach end and land done this way they are easy but idle that engine and you will have problems.

If you attempt it use rubber wheels and not the pizza cutters. The most common problem folks have with them are landing on the hard wheels with engine running and the firewall is ripped out downward from contact.

The indeed are great flying airplane but be aware you will get into trouble very quickly by using to much throws that evey one wants to do and be aware most quickees although they slow down very nicely for approach with the engine off because of the minimal aileron at slow speed will require the use of rudder on approach when slowed down or you will find the airplane responding in roll poorly.
