Further flight dynamics refinements following deep real-world Cabri G2 flight instructor feedback:

• Power gradients and climb performance tuneups.
• Pedals input and vertical fin aspects especially on takeoff/ETL transit.
• Pedal and cyclic input requirements when going through ETL (pre/post ETL regime).
