Rebeca Shipman and Brian thanks for the comment. My first response to Rebecca did not go through. Yes the pitch is VARY,VERY,VERY sensitive. I can not express this enough. All the students never believe us. If you breath on the pitch trim buttoms on this aircraft it will pitch. The roll is standard. The 601/650 is short coupled and very sensitive. It works out very good for new students. ALL PILOTS coming in have a problem with the adjustment. The Zodiac is the PERFECT aircraft for training and cross country from Sun n Fun to Redding Cailfornia. My Husband is a Commercial Pilot and he has a lot of respect over the Zodiac compared to the other light sports he has flown. We do Commercial Pilot Training in the Zodiac, and the DPE's are surprised with the stall characteristics of the Zodiac. Good luck, Aumie

Question on transition training:  I currently fly a light sport low wing plane - Gobosh 700s.  Compared to the Piper Warrior that I used to fly, it is much more "responsive" in pitch and slightly more responsive in roll.  I fly it with my fingertips.  It also has the typical light sport stall characteristics.  Is a Zodiac 650B likely to be significantly different from the Gobosh?
