Thanks to those who commented on my control input theory. You might wonder why I use such large amounts of control, it is often trying to fight the wind, or when the plane hits a bump of lift. Most of my flying lately is using very small amounts of control. If the plane does not seem to turn, I will ease in some down to gain speed. The other thing I have been trying to analyze, is what to do when you know you have thrown into lift. The initial hookup with the thermal seems to be critical.
