It depends on the stoker/captain personalieties. Some people can not give up control and some people can not assume control. For us it took less than 1-2 minutes to start having fun.... but after many years and many miles we are still improving our communication.
May we suggest that you close your eyes for a while next time you go out. Just try it.
From what we can see, both of you are very strong ridders... not only long, endurance ridders but also strong/fast. If you tame the tandem you are going to make a lot of friends in organized or group rides... people are going to fight to grab your wheel and you will drop most but the strongest singles... it would be soo much fun!!
