Default RE: Extra 330L strange flight problem

ORIGINAL: stephensackro

1) When I do a medium size loop at medium speed, it tracks well all through the loop except just before it comes out of the loop at the bottom, it will veer off to the right (almost 30 degrees clockwise) and goes up slightly.

2) It does this both with inside loops and outside loops. It even does this when I pull a hard split S.

3) I checked all the wing and tail insidences and everything is almost perfect. One wing has a slight twist starting from zero degrees at the root to 3/4 of a degree at the wing tip.
1) Is it a pure yaw or some roll is noticed? Do you keep the same radius during the loop?

2) Control-wise, what changes at the bottom of the loop? Where and how much power do you input to finish the loop? Have you tried with no power addition at the bottom?

3) What wing shows the warp of 3/4 degrees and in what direction?
