My pleasure Dave. I suggest giving the aircraft a 2-3 degree nose up attitude, especially when taking off from grass. Some folks will say to have nose tilted down, this is wrong. This results in the aircraft springing up into the air on takeoff. Not pretty. Having the wing at a positive angle of attack gives that smooth rise from the ground that gets you the 10's from the judges.

Good luck with your Phoenix!
