Default RE: U Can Do 3D

I have 5 or 6 flights on the plane now.
Starting to get more and more comfortable.
Today made the first flights off our acreage.
My only concern is the landing gear.
I reenforced it but it seems so many folks have had trouble I worry about it.
The Saito 100 has been problem free ( I better knock on wood).
It idles well and has unlimited verticle.
I am still running it very rich.
I have my cg right at the recommended location now.
I have pretty bad pitching to the landing gear side in knife edge.
Should I work this problem by mixing in elevator with the rudder or should I try to use the ailerons as flaps/spoilers to improve it?
Thanks!
