Default RE: A powered Thermal Glider as a first plane ?

The only problem I noticed in guys I'd taught to fly with gliders, when they went to power they didn't get the usual timeouts when the glider flies itself. Some of them were "behind the airplane" almost right away. And were uncomfortable until they got up to speed, till they got used to the more nearly constant attention needed.
