Hello,

I have a Giant Scale Planes (GSP) Spitfire with a Saito 100. The plane generally flies very well and is solid and smooth at high and medium speeds. The plane, however, becomes extremely sensitive to elevator deflection with both the gear and flaps down, making it difficult to land. It is very difficult to keep it from "porpoising". The cg is set so that on a 45 degree inverted upline, the plane will arc moderately towards the canopy. Is this behavior typical of spitfires? Any suggestions for reducing the sensitivity or at least how to better handle this on landings?

As an aside, I just installed the G2 flight simulator and notice that the simulator spitfire exhibits some of the same tendencies, although perhaps not to the same degree.

Thanks,

Travis
