Here's what I did....

I did not add washers nor right thrust.

I bent the tail wheel wire out, so the plane stands more upright on the runway, and added a bit of leftward canter to the wheel so the plane rolls very slightly to the right.

I put each aileron servo on a separate channel and used flaperon mixing.

I set the flaperons to be activated on a TX switch, but I reversed the flaperon direction (not the aileron function though ).

I set the inverted ''flap'' amount to about 15-20%. This gives me a bit of reflex when I pop the switch. The reflex kills the ballooning tendancy.

But the best part is that I added two other mixes from elevator to flaps, also activated on a three position switch.

When I have the switch at center. I get normal operation.

With the switch down, I get elevator to flap mixing... Up elevator produces up to 80% down flaps. In this position, the plane practically loops in it's own length on a hard pull!

With the switch up, I get elevator to reflex mixing... Up elevator produces up to 80% up flaps. In this position the plane performs fantastic ''elevators'' in a light breeze or wind.

I also find that reflex mixing seems to help torque rolls and hovering a lot too.
