RE: Back to flying
Roo Man,
Welcome back to the hobby, glad you got back with very little problems.
I've had many of the SSE's as I think they are such a great plane to fly. However, they can be a bit sensitive on the elevator when landing, as you have discovered. Try this. Dial in some dual rates if your radio will do it. For the SSE I usually put about 60% on the low rate side of it. When it comes time to land flip down to the lower rate which will soften the throws on the elevator and tame the plane down a bit when you are landing
