Vinny,
I had that issue when doing the proto. I went full power and it headed straight DOWN!!... I shimmed the back of motor UP about 1/4" and it took it out. 3" is good enough for landing... For now, just shim motor than try again..... Let me know how it does after that..... I think you will be better.... If ballooning still there ad 1/4" down elev.

High Gents,
I am building one of the last DV8R`s. The kit I recently bought from Gene.
Unfortunately the clear canopy was damaged while transported, so I am looking for a new or used part. Does anyone have one spare for sale? Can´t get a new one - unfortunately.
Will pay via paypal.
b.r.

Yep, I have done all of that when I did all the testing. The solution was a heavier spring all together.
I will post pictures tonight of the landing gear. As you saw, Robart has them... you just gotta special order.
