What do you do for training while flying?
So I have been cruising my new PZ Corsair around the soccer fields, keeping it high overhead, doing loops, rolls and a few yet to be named tricks 
Having a blast with it. Flying on high rates.
Now I am curious if there are any training excercises...etc that instructors have people do for training when they are new. I have the skids installed so there is no gear for touch ang go's. Flying in figure eights seem easy enough. Any sugestions?

RE: What do you do for training while flying?
If you can, you should try landing gear as well. It will help you with the tendency to overcontrol, and as you advance you will want to taxi the aircraft back rather than walk across the field. Additionally, the AMA maneuvers include T/Os and LDGs. Of course, if you're flying alone in your own field it doesn't make much difference. However, smooth taxiing is as much a challenge as flying smooth maneuvers.
