I'm swinging the Xoar 22-8 as well.. The plane flew great with it, I just need to getit toidle a tad lower.. A few adjustments on the needles should do the trick.. It ran great but I was at 2400 on the low end, I could get it down to 19-18'swith trim but it would load up.. It was also about 35 degrees cooler out then the last time I ran it and this field is at a higher elevation as well...

Turning the top wing into a one piece wing really worked out well for me, the hatches worked out great and hid the wires how I wanted. Pretty happy I did the extra work on that........

Any of you guys have smoke on yours? I was thinking of adding a S.S. over the winter, there is plenty of room for one...

Oh, my batteries ended up staying where I had them for the first flight. i didn't do much inverted flight, but she did nice slowrolls and didn't drop her nose on the inverted side. If anything, my ignition battery will move forward, but the RX batteries are staying put... I just have them all on velcro right now, once satisfiedI will gluein some light ply with strap rings and get the tieddown better... I also did away with the stock servo arms and went with good 1.5" aluminum arms, they are the type that have three screws holing it on, much stronger...
