Default RE: CG Matrix Flight Report...

Hey guys,

I got in some serious stick time with the Matrix this weekend even though the wind
wouldn't let up. I like it better the more I fly it. Added a little expo on all flying surfaces ,
a little differential on the ailerons , and about 1 1/2 ozs on the tail to straighten out the
pitch to canopy during knife-edge and that's the way I'll fly it this weekend in Waco. It feels
real solid.

By the way Bruce , after I got home and was cleaning it I noticed the left wheel pant was
starting to split at the front edge so I took them both off and reinforced them with glass
just like I did the cowl. Same problem you had and I didn't have any hard landings !
Decided while I had them off to paint them silver. Looks better in my opinion.

Continued good luck guys , I'll let you know how I do in Waco.
