RE: Top flight Texan Maiden--bad
E-Henry,
It is quite possible that my pre-flight ground trimming set the elvator too much on the positive side. This would have made it lift off too early. who knows. I'm sure of two things--it crashed, and it will be rebuilt in 10-15 hours worth or work. When I try it again, I will most likely make it nose heavy by at least 1/4 inch or so, and set a little down elevator in the trim before takeoff. That way it won't lift off until I'm sure it has enough airspeed. I did not check the incidences on my bird either. All of that was set by the die cut ply pieces, and should have been right. Maybe I shouldn't have taken it for granted. I have a meter at my disposal, and I'll check it before it flies again.
