Default RE: Too much down thrust on GSP?

I have added a 1/16" thick strip of brass under the right engine mount against the firewall to remove some of the right thrust. Hopefully that will remove some of my left aileron trim. I will try to install gear door covers. The stock covers that came with the kit no longer completely cover the wheel wells since the wheel wells have been enlarged.

Before you attempt a 3-point landing, you might want to do a stall test to see if the plane will tend to drop a wing. You don't want any surprises while bringing the plane in slow for a 3-point touch down.
