3DOnAnEdge,
Thanks for the words of wisdom, they are actually pretty encouraging to me.
I figured it more than likely was me and not the plane, its just SO different than what I was used to. Ive seen the plane fly before I got it and I knew it would do all the 3D maneuvers. I was just taken aback at how much more difficult it was. Everyone said "Oh its going to be SO MUCH EASIER with a big plane". Well its really not, at least not initially. When things do go right it is a lot more impressive however[8D]. Well regardless I am going to learn how to fly it well or die trying. I think the real problem for me here is that everyone told me it was going to be easier than it is with a smaller 3D plane right off the bat and it wasnt. If I would not have had such high expectations I probably wouldnt be so freaked out.

Im pretty tenacious, I WILL get it eventually..[>:]

You said you have one of these planes. How much Up elevator do you have on high rate? I have had as much as 60 degrees and as little as 40 degrees trying to find a sweet pot. Seems like less is more. The stalling got much worse at 60 degrees and the elevators didnt really get any better. Also does any amount of spoileron or flaperon help with the wingrocking?


K&D,
I have been thinking about the right thrust issue. Thing is, it passes all of the vertical trimtests that would tell you if it needed right thrust. It tracks perfectly vertically so Im going to play with it a little longer and see if I am the problem before I take the cowling off.[8D]
