Hi BashaBolla,

I really appreciete the information you have provided above. I am just a few jobs away from flying mine. Might even be tomorrow if the weather plays ball. Looking at the information provided I have gone with the following setup:-
1) Set up as ailerons on the outer surface only, elevators on all wing surfaces. I'll review after the first flight.
2) Throws as per the plan - although I have noted the Dave reduced them a bit after the first flight. Think I would rather have a slightly lively elevator than not enough on landing
3) CoG 15mm forward from the plan position

Dave W, Basha, - my feeling is that the Vulcan will need flying on the rudder quiet abit, especially on landing? Landing seems to be the tricky part - especially holding the nose up in the final turn. I usually keep my jets flat in the final turn to not provoke a stall.

Regards,

John
