Hmmm, it is almost arrow straight on knife edge. And the pull to the canopy in a downline is pretty slight. My original intention was to reduce incidence to get the down elevator trim out but Im beginning to think that I might just leave everything well enough alone and not worry about the down elevator, since so far I cannot see it causing any coupling issues whatsover. It flies so much better than anything I have ever had my hands on,,,, as far as I can tell from my limited abilities the ONLY shortcoming is that 1 minor problem in vertical downlines. Everything else seems near perfect to me.
