Hello, I am a PPL holder who did all of their training at a part 61 school in an Evektor Harmony. That specific aircraft is VERY different from a 172. It’s a light sport with a flaps extended stall speed of 32kts IAS. Very different speeds, also, NO FUEL LEANING OR CONTROL. All that they have is a straight throttle and I’m mortified about adapting that to immediately going into my IFR training was going to be egregiously led on by

1. Not being familiar with the aircraft itself
2. Due to costs + schooling, not being able to fly since January.

Is there any option before I start flying to be able to become proficient in the aircraft by the school or be able to do some sort of recurrent training in order to be more comfortable adding onto my training? I’d prefer to do this with a riddle aircraft in order to understand their systems, G1000 ect.
Thanks!!
Edit: I will be there the 16th of August, so if anyone has any experience or is looking for a independent CFI opportunity, I’m more than happy to pay for it as such.

I submitted a couple of requests on MCR earlier this past couple of weeks and haven’t been able to see any of them pop up, I wasn’t sure if I even got any because my 5 requests disappeared and I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to pick a room. Anyone want to weigh in on what to do?
