Not to take exception to anybody, nor to argue: How many R/C fliers, 'specially in the early part of the learning curve (and sometimes forever after) don't even use the left stick? (at least in mode 2). Heh - 'firewall' the throttle, hoping it's going to go down the runway in the right direction, take off, back off to 80% throttle, then fly until it's time to land.

jucava is using his rudder - more power to him! Mode 1 fliers tend to use their rudder more, if only cuz of their age (*grin*) and the stick configuration. I was forced to use rudder (I admit it - I was a 'right stick' flier) by a mode 1 guy... "Hey, Rob!!! You're about to learn how to knife-edge your Goldberg Cub!!!"

It was an eye-opener, to say the least. Roll it on its side, kick in full rudder, then watch it rudder-couple its way horizontal again. Huh - try again. Roll/rudder/some aileron...Woohoo!!! I'm doing it!! Hmmm...what can you do with that? Let's try *this*!! Flat turns - not as a 'normal' way of flying, but to thrill and amaze your friends as well as learn to control the plane to do what you want it to do, no matter what it wants to do. Then sideslipping. Then 'crabbing' across the field..... then barrel rolls... Huh - this is fun!!!

More power to you, jucava - keep flying!!
