Not sure what it looks like from the outside, but it seemed terrifying.

I will not mention any impure thoughts I may have had vis a vis the control stick. Not gonna do it.

This is a good video. The passenger was begging her to land at the end... https://youtu.be/zjeY7QomTvw

It looks kind of like this. This is me flying a scale Laser Z-300 aerobatic plane but from the ground with a radio... The guy shooting the video is an ex-mechanic and a pilot and was in the same aerobatic club as Svetlana K. Oh, the stories he tells me...

It’s amazing how responsive her plane is. Yours too Serge, but I’ll bet you don’t have the same facial expressions she does.
