Default RE: Knife Edge Problem

I used that trimming chart to get this far....CG is 5 1/8 behind leading edge...At first...hands off it would climb when inverted but I added some nose weight(did the same thing in KE before adding weight), after adding weight just a touch of down to maintain level inverted. Do you think I should add more nose weight? Trimming chart says add more nose weight if it tucks to belly. Have a pull - pull ready to install but Im not quite sure exactly how im going to do that without using a pully(not real interested in that) or having the wires come out about 6 inches in front of the H stab to provide straight shot. Anyone done that yet? After checking again my engine thrust is about 1 or 2 degrees up. WOWBAGGER...that is exactly what happens to me, by the time you correct with the elev it snaps out....I would like to try some other options before changing the holes but I really appreciate the input. In a power off vertical dive did yours tuck to the belly?Thanks again for the help.

Appreciate the help
