Hi Nieto, based on what I read I did manage to move the landing gear just over an inch forward. This makes the ground handlying a piece of cake with no hint of nosing over problems. In fact I only needed up elevator in a stiff cross wind to keep the tail down. I maxed out the aileron throws. Managed to get in 2 flights before it got too windy on the weekend. With the ailerons maxed the plane responds as crisp as any of my sport planes. Very nice and looks really different in the air. Also very impressive slow speed flight and glide ratio. Haven't tried the flaps as yet. Want to get to know it a bit better first. This plane is definitely a better flyer than I expected. Later, Fast!
