Maybe you accidentally set a mix from your throttle to your elevator [sm=bananahead.gif]

Just kidding, you have a strange one. Here are some more things to look at:

- Did you wind up with any upthrust? Check and add some washers to point the engine down a bit to see if this helps.

- Is the main wing seated well. If rubber banded, add a few extra bands.

- Was there any chance the main wing and/or stabilizer incidence was changed in your crash and repair. If so, check.


Also, what is the wing loading and the wing span? I also wonder if you have a combination of a heavy plane and a rearward CG. If the plane is currently tail-heavy, then adding weight to the nose or putting the 40LA in it might make the wing loading too high for the plane- just another shot in the dark.
