Not sure what we are supposed to get out of a 15second video playing questionable music. Did I miss something

dont use the needs as primary fly your bugged heading and calculated vsi and see what the needles do. You shouldn't need to adjust power unless the winds are highly variable on the way down

Those are very good photos but I don't like the look of that plane type sorry
