Default Update on Creek Extra

Hi all,

I'm finally getting a little better flying this thing. It flies SO much better since I got the CG right. But one question.... Does anyone else have problems with it nosing over on landing?

I did it once and blamed it on the weeds. Then I did it again and blamed it on the wheel pants and dirt. Then, I almost did it again but I (finally) landed it on the runway and was making some turns to slow it down a bit (on the ground) and it almost nosed over again? And this time I had my Mezjlik prop on it. PHEW! I caught it just in time. I plan on moving the CG back as I get more used to it, but it sure "feels" nose heavy on the ground.

Anyone else?

Mike
