it was really touchy. To the point of unusable with anything but a peddle rudder control system
Pulling the yoke helps during the touchy part
I think that the best is doing operations progressively, firstly at low throttle, holding the yoke pulled, up to a velocity not too high (to avoid takeoff at low airspeed), then release the yoke progressively.

Actually I should reverse that and leave fgaddon easier until we can fine tune this.
and make the git repo the touchy one
