    @DragonAerotech AHAHAHAHAHahaha, well that sucks, maybe there is a option to lower the speed of Yaw control? If not then tap the yaw over and over.

    @TheOwlAce Yep, I was, but my joystick seems REALLY sensitive too. Also yaw control is via buttons, my joystick doesn't twist to give a good smooth yawing action. Okay, that sounded horrible. -_-

    @DragonAerotech you were using your joystick right?

    @TheOwlAce I liked the one that you put into service recently it handles well so long as you remember not to try to roll/pitch at the same time. This one you really need to ride the yaw control and it was brilliant to utilize the air brakes for that! I couldn't get this one back to the airport though to try a landing she just kept wanting to be a self-propelled boomerang! XD
