Default Ziroli Zero Control Throws

Can someone give me a starting point for the control throws. I looked on the plans but do not see any as he usually has them on there. Any help will be appreciated.Thanks

Call Mike at Ziroli and ask him. It isn't on the plans!

no, I just fly what I build unlike yourself
in not being able to close the deal on a build.

and being I own and fly a Ziroli Zero, I know
where to look for the information the original
poster was looking for.

I would have figured you knew this was on
their site since they carry your "canopy rails"
but that would have required you to search
for it, and thats something you have a hard
time doing yourself[8D]

who loves you man

Hay t-b, you seem familiar with Ziroli Zero, I had two of them, they both needed about 1/4" down elevator trim, do you know if that is a common trait with the bird or just on the planes I had? thanks.

yea, similar for mine. what I have done however after
checking upthrust on the engine, I finally have some
down elevator mixed in with my throttle.

when I go past half throttle I get some down elevator
dialed in so no need to keep re-trimming in flight

That is good to know, I had built two of them, now that I know that is a common problem I think it would help to set some negative incidence on the stab at the build stage, sounds like the prints are off a little on that issue, thanks.
