Default How long to learn to hover?

I don't remember the initial source for the modified Extra Special file that I use. I did not create it ... I must have downloaded it from somewhere. It is relatively easy to hover - especially compared to the stock G2 files.

I tweaked the plane and the engine file a bit, but somebody else did the bulk of the work. I personally never got the Extra Special to hover very well working straight from the stock G2 file. Who ever did the original modifications was smarter than I am.

I do have the files from the Profile Brotherhood, they are OK. I happen to prefer the file that I currently use - but that is obviously personal preference. I also use a modified version, set up with spoilerons (instead of flapperons). It seems to help with flips/waterfalls/harriers (I need a lot practice on these).

I could e-mail a copy to those who are interested. The files are small - the plane file is about 10K and the engine file is 1K. I did not do much to the engine file - I think I changed the prop to an 11x5 and that is about it.

The Extreme 330 color scheme is available from the RealFlight G2 download page (this is a much larger file). It definitely looks better with the Extreme 330 color scheme.
