You keep saying its not similar to actual flying. How do the control surfaces behave
differently? What is the power to weight ration of the 'real' airplanes to which you
refer? Do RC airplanes have a lot more power to weight? Less?

When you are flying a real plane, you feel the surfaces reacting in
the seat of your pants


Heh. You feel a hell of a lot more than that. Take off on a windy day
with a lot of turbulence. Better yet, try landing under the same
conditions with a stiff crosswind.


The effect is the same on an RC plane.


Bull****. Sorry.


No sweat. Apology accepted.
