    Once you had to govern your headspeed very carefully otherwise the inevitable crash would occur. Today with ever increasing power availability due to a combination of battery, motor technology and advanced build designs we find ourselves flying differently than if we had to carefully maintain our headspeed. So are our skillsets diminishing as a result? What do you think?

      I often find it transitionally challenging flying my electric and then the nitro.

      Probably... but I can't be bothered with nitro... I do tend to find that to be smooth in a move you do need some decent skills... but you can just power through I'd you need to.. so it makes you a bit lazier...
      That said I've never flown a nitro..

      Some maneuvers are just not possible with out power and if you have bad collective management with an electric your flying will just look messy so collective management is still needed.

      I suppose that's true.... But if you can do hard collective and keep it together then you are a Master!
