Thanks for letting me know. I had to look at the code to see how to back up. Now that I know how, I can do it. Skyhook operates a bit more like a crane, where the joystick axes control everything. Instead of toggling a switch like ufo and magic carpet, you do it with the yoke. This requires that you slow down and stop before backing up instead of slamming from v to -v (infinite accelerations seem a bit unnatural, even for UFOs and Magic Carpets). If you want Skyhook I have it.
