That is all just plain b**c*in! Well done!
I recently finished / acquired some of my furniture from school days in the mid 80's. Fun to remember how much energy I had back then...

LOL, we barely know our Vne I guess it depends on how strong you are? The controls are still heavy but now it responds very quickly without delay. Much more fun to fly if that's possible!
