after flying a 500 it would be abismal but its loads better than a 44
i flew to sloanes to try out the 44 i went in my 280fx the 44 seemed to be not as stable as the fx was ,granted i only flew 15 mins but that was enough i then flew home without any problems the instructor at sloanes said it was a windy day for the 44 the 100 mile flight there and back in the fx was fine
