2nd flight in cabri

2nd flight today in cabri. Last heli flight 10 yrs ago in an R22 sitting a CPL flight test so obviously extremely rusty to say the least. I'm about to pump through some hours to get back up to speed. Tending to lean towards the R22 again maybe just because it's what I'm use to but from a learner opinion I find it more responsive. With all the amazing features of the Cabri I didn't Gell with the sticky anti torque and the close to the ground characteristics. A Gem to fly straight and level but on recollection I can't remember being able to see the skids. Is that important ? Not sure. Awesome technology, dig the cockpit layout. Personally not my preference at this time. I'll post again after having been back in the R22. Keen to hear others thoughts.
