So the surprise that I'm in for sounds like I'm feeling out the the plane for maiden flight....get her all trimmed and level......testing tip stall characteristics....doing a roll or two to check responsiveness....testing all my in-flight control surfaces for function...line 'er up over one end of the field....full throttle....and poof...and the knees start to wobble.....
BTW....my instructionsdo illustrate installing the elev. servo directly to the horiz. stab. Maybe I'll get lucky with balancing per Kappner's post.....we shall see....hehehe
