RE: Flaperons?
Aviator, good to see you are on the right track. With the CG in the correct position the airplane will fly much better overall. I know you were happy with the flight performance before but expect an improvement. I have " ruined " many of sport pilots by showing them how to set up their airplanes to fly better then they would have thought possible. Afrer that they always take more time getting the settings correct. As an IMAC unlimited pilot to be competitive I need my airplanes to be as easy to fly as possible and that can only be accomplished by going through a process of getting the airplane trimmed to do so. Typically it takes me a good 50 flights to get an airplane flying really well. Even then, when the new season starts with a new sequence, I have to tweak my settings some to suit the new sequence. After you get the CGset if you would like more info to really get that Extra flying well, let me know. I think it would be great to do something like this here so guys can see the trimming process in action and the benifits as we go through it.
