So far I have some trimming issues I had to figure out. She could not hold a straight line on the verticals and the descents were off as well. Everything seemed out of wack from the last time I flew her with the ZDZ up front. I thought maybe the wingloading was to high and she was flying to heavy but then I notice something strange, The engine would tilt a bit when I grabbed the prop from top to bottom. Under further investigating I realized that the whole motor box had loosened up. Even after adding washers for more up and right thrust adjustment, I still measured 1 degree of downthrust today.

I never did anything to the motorbox to beef it up for this powerful engine, but know I definitely will. I also believe that I might have opened up the firewall to much to give access to the rear mounting carb weakening the entire structure. I already removed the old firewall and know in the process of making a new one.

Trying my best to work on her as fast as possible so that I can start practicing for the next IMAC contest in september. With all the issues between January and know this will be the only contest I will have a chance of making.
