Sim Mode with no take-off assist. Take-off was a little tricky at first but after watching the video 100 times and crashing many times i have got it sorted, she is very touchy and needs a gentle hand to make it all work.
Landing is my terror, bounce bounce bounce....flip, roll and crash. My approach speed is way to high as is my AoA...practice makes perfect.
I have ripped my ailerons off a few times now when in a steep dive, blacked out because of the G's and crashed. I'm in love with this bird, she is a real dream to fly and a great challenge.
I use a Logitech extreme 3d pro, with a 3 deadzone (Helps me with the wobble i get in the air, since my joystick is pretty old) this is for both pitch and roll.
