Yep, it's pretty realistic. Caps are known for exactly that characteristic. That's not to say that ALL CAPs behave that way. For example, I once had a GP Cap 580 that was as stable as any other sport plane I have ever flown. On the other hand, I had a hangar 9 cap 232 that would snap in a heartbeat. My point is: in general, CAPs are known to be twitchy and the one on the simulator is a pretty fair representation of the average 232.

Do you have any suggestions on how to build mine? What about balancing it... Nose heavy?
