Flight characteristics of Savoia Marchetti SM.79

MacGregor Knox, in „Mussolini Unleashed“, p. 23 writes about the SM.79: „It nevertheless had flaws - the chief of which was extreme instability in rough air; according to Valle’s successor, the Germans „considered it so dangerous that they dared not set foot in it.“
Is there anything to it? As Mr. Knox' book is truly excellent, I'd be surprised if it wasn't.
