Like the Nomex gloves. I believe that's what the student pilots used when I was in the Navy. Hopefully you'll never really need all their protective qualities but it's too late to run out and buy them if at some moment you do.
@napiermark I believe it is the Digiflight II VS if I remember right. Good call on the adverse yaw, no it doesn't have anything special, and not rudder input, just pitch and roll. That is one of the challenges of putting an auto pilot in this type aircraft. It works best at cruise speeds, when you start slowing down it will wallow a bit, but you shouldn't be using it for slow flight anyway.

What model TruTrak is that?
Does it have anything special to handle the adverse yaw in the Carbon Cub? I ask because I want to install one in a Kitfox. Thanks.
