Fisher,

I can tighten up the loop, but it will tighten it up in both inside and outside loops.

I'm not so sure the issued with an outside loop is overcoming the airfoil. A couple things you might want to check is how closely aligned your wing and horizontal stab are. I see in the build docs, they should almost be aligned when looking at the front. Also, check the travel of the elevator for both up and down and see if they are the same number of degrees when measured with a protractor. It could also be possible that the speed of the descent in the outside loop is causing a servo to be less effective.

In FMS, degree of deflection for control surfaces is one number for both up and down.

Follow links above to new .par/model files.
