RE: How do you hold your transmitter sticks
I never saw a real pilot fly a real (full scale) plane with his thumbs. Since I fly both, I grab the stick with my thumb and fingers...just feels right. However, it boils down to how you learned originally. I believe the survey will continue to show that lots of people do it both ways. I've never been able to determine that one way is "better" or makes a better pilot.
