Default RE: TuffFlight Panther "Tuck Under" Flight Problem

Hi Kirk,
We met at Andersonville this past summer. You are correct regarding right hand turns.... they did tend to climb. The vertical stab is pretty floppy side to side. I am going to stiffen the stab as well. Even at SSC speeds, the forces on the stab are bound to make it move side to side, affecting stability.
Regards,
Mike
