Let us know what you find.

Well, I checked the incidence and it is indeed out. They are both supposed to be at +1deg and as it sits there is a +2deg difference in the wing than the tail. There really isn't any way to correct this as the plane sits so it's been trimmed out with some down elevator. The plane is ballanced dead nuts on and left that way. I added the foam inserts into the Robart scale wheels and got them running freely and put a 14x8 prop on the bird. Had 2 great flights yesterday without a problem and was amazed at the difference in how the plane rolls now with the wheels being denser. That's a total of 5 flights now on it, and now it's time to have some fun! [8D] Thanks all for your feedback!
I can't seem to figure out how to add some pictures or i'd share a couple...
