Default RE: Exponential on Elevator?? Is it required on a Bandit.

Dave W,

I ALWAYS land with the full flap setting. BVM use a jig to set up. I think it is 45 deg.

This is the Comp Super Bandit which is STRONG, but heavy. It weighs 24 lbs bone dry, and carries 3.5 litres of fuel..

I also own a classic Balsa Bandit which I do recall needed the CG way further aft then the plans indicated. That model is only 19lbs dry)..

It is all pointing to moving CG back, and reducing expo..
