So now that I've decided on the engine, it's time to revisit the flight reports:

So does this sound familiar?

"Almost immediately it banked to the left and it became clear that massive and continuous right aileron was needed. While holding in considerable right stick I took it up high (out of camera range) to work on the trims: EMERGENCY trims! After applying all the right trim available, I still needed to hold in right aileron on the stick but it was manageable, particularly since I was making counter-clockwise circuits of the field."

Looks like some right thrust is called for on this model also. It's not going to be easy.
