Pat Yes, I am sure that the geometry of the side stick or any location for a stick would play heavily on the sensitivity of the control of the plane. But from what I notice on Don's design was that there was not enough room to allow the geometry of that installation to be improved. I have had a VeriEze and of coarse they have a side stick and it is not that sensitive. I liked it very much. And yes, the geometry was set up correctly. It had the needed room for that installation.
But my suggestion was simply that for a person starting out. I would suggest a stick coming up from the floor. And on KR2S I am sure that it would not be as sensitive as on a regular KR2. Just thinking of safety. Would you not shoot for something safer to start with. Experience is a great instructor and educator.
