Default RE: News for fellow aeroirders....

I tried to fly again today, but still not much control, very unstable flight. I ensured the control surfaces were trimmed so that they are level with the rest of the surfaces, ( transmitter on of course). Adjusting the tail screws didn't seem to make much difference. I verified that the tail boom did not unsnap out of the fuselage. The tail has been repaired with packing tape after the last crash. I did notice that the tail pieces are not at a 90 degree angle to each other. The angle is much greater than that. I'm thinking this may be causing the problem? What do you think? Both of my local hobby shops have the new tails on back order so I won't be able to replace it until they come in. I think I will wait to fly again until I can get a new tail, I don't want the poor bird to take anymore needless beatings!
