Default How do I fly this plane?

I've got and am assembling my Phoenix Super Decathlon, waiting for a bigger fuel tank and engine mount - will maiden next weekend. what do I need to know about this plane? It has a really short tail, and I've heard something about torque rolls. I've also heard something about flying the tail, but if that just means keeping it straight and not nosing it over I should be all set. I' super excited to fly this plane; I'm pretty ready for it and am eager to hear your suggestions.

I also want to thank everyone in this forum. Im about to maiden my third plane and am training for my second pattern meet in only 2.5 months of flying. I owe it all to you for your experience and advice; I listened and took it to heart, and to the field. Thank you.
