LOL Don't stop - ever. If you are going down the hill it won't work. If you are coming up the hill you won't get going again.

Landing there is interesting. On touch down you immediately go to full power to get up the hill.

The best bit is the EFATO, really easy. You don't even need to put in the power as you fly away from the emergency landing site. You just glide off down the valley.
