Default RE: Showtime for Pattern flying?

Hey Dick, a couple guys(me included)are having a problem with the plane snapping during tight loops and when pulling up elevator from a down line, to me, its the only bad trait this plane has and not all are experiencing it. Mine weighs in around 10lbs, has a Moki 1.35 in it, CG is at recommended spot, has been balanced laterally.I use tripple rates, it happens at medium rate(about 80% throw with 75% expo, its slightly less than 45 degrees elevator at mid rate.) I'm not hitting full elevator when it snaps to the right(always right), I dont think I'm pulling the sticks more than half way. A thread is growing on this, I know there is many things we can try to solve this but maybe you can save us all some time and effort,any ideas??
