Default RE: Flaps or flaperons?



Often a tailheavy plane is worse than a noseheavy plane, a plane which is slightly nose heavy is often more stable than a plane which has the tail down.
The old rule is that a plane should have the noseslightlydown, but for an acrobatic plane, it should be 100 % level, I guess

My cub wasslightly nose heavy, maybe its better that the cub is 100% level

Balancing the plane will be done after it has been lightly "restored"
