Well, the weather here was very nice (houston) and there were no excuses. It flew very well. Lots of power and lots of control authority. I was able to tone down the throws and fly a sequence on the second flight. The downlines want to go toward the canopy a little bit. K.E. is funny....seems speed related. At high speed it seems to couple alot (windy conditions this morning too??) but when slowed a bit to do a nice intermediate sequence, the k.e. is very good and predictable. It might need 3-5% up elev. mix....I'll wait for a calm day to dial that in. Landing was nice and slow with no stall tendency at all.....matter of fact I touched tail wheel first on the the second flight with it crabbed into a slight crosswind....very pattern plane like. I landed prematurely on the second flight as I found that the elevator was suddenly out of trim (needed up). After landing, I saw that one of my spyder wire cables going to the top horn on one elev. was broke/cut by the sharp edged hole on the 4-40 end (ones with the hole) that goes into the clevis. I will either deburr all of these 4-40 ends or try coated steel cable. Does anyone know if the coated cable will cause any rf interference with my antannae running down the inside of the fuse?

Hope to fix cables tonight and fly again tomorrow....maybe get some video tomorrow.
