Hello there.
I have a couple of questions regarding the control stick for the kr2.

which control stick is much easier in all aspects of flying and of course safer 
?
single stick side control ?------dual controls middle stick ?
are they both safe to use ?      any pros and cons on either stick ? any 
problems with the routing of control cables ?
or it's just a matter of preference for an individual builder.?
thanks guys
