RE: cmp p47 thunderbolt
Hi Jeff,
I flew the crap out of this plane and had a blast with it. The elevator is very touchy as it is on any WWII bird because of the short tail moment. I took care of the problem by using 1/2" up and down elevator travel on low rates. If you have exponential that will help tame the airplane. It is a common issue with short birds. and as I said I had 12 oz. of nose weight between a higley Heavy Hub and 10 oz. of stick on weight glued into the very front of the cowl lip. Mine weighed in at 5.5 lbs which is a perfectly acceptable weight for a .40 size airplane. My Corsair and P-40 all have very small amounts of elevator throw for the same reasons. These are the TF birds. tame down the elevator and you'll enjoy the model
Good luck
Mike
