Flying such a light airframe with low inertia and sensitive controls requires good piloting technique. I found that certain things which you can do in a 172 and get away with it simply will not cut the mustard in the Tecnam P2008. That does not mean it is harder to fly. The systems are far newer and simpler than a 172/Pa28's so there is less management required. So you can devote more effort into flying the plane. That cannot be a bad thing.
