Default RE: CG Matrix Flight Report...

Sounds great, Bruce. Also sounds like your engine is doing right.

Omega is good fuel. Just be aware it has a lot of castor (50/50 castor/synthetic), which could gum up your valves if the engine isn't run regularly. But you won't have to worry about bearing rust...

I run Cool Power 15% (all synthetic) with an ounce of castor per gallon for bearing protection.

I have 30% expo on elevator and aileron at low rate, and 80% on high. 30% on rudder, but that's just to tame the ground handling.

I beefed up all the servo mounting blocks with some 1/4" square spruce underneath. These Pacific Rim ARFs persist in using lite ply for servo blocks. Bad juju.


Sorry about that, Tommy; forgot you had a .60 in there.
