    I just use the buttons I set on my joystick like any other plane. You've just got to strike the correct balance of trim and throttle.

    Though most of the time I'm on autopilot...

    Something to watch out for is that, unlike most lower-performance planes, it likes to assume a slightly nose-up attitude in cruise. As I understand it, that's due to a combination of the high speed and the angle at which the wing joins the fuselage. I thought I was doing something wrong at first until I started to read other commentary about it, though from the beginning it flew very nicely when trimmed for high-speed cruise... just with its nose in the air.

    I'd sure like to be able to fly this airplane but with constant right bank its very hard to enjoy. I've tried trimming and throttle adjust ments with now effect.

    uuugghhh!

    Fuel selector on both? Uneven fuel is the only time mine banks involuntarily.
