Alright guys, tried to get the turning a little better today. Just for kicks, I tried some backwards laps....... Absolutely beautiful, good exit with no drop. So I figured that eliminated the C/G problem. I then also remembered that in trying to do the "right thing" I had added 3/4 oz. of lead to the left wingtip to laterally balance the plane, so I promptly got out the exacto and removed it. Needless to say it helped out a lot, but I think it still actually needs more weight in the right tip. It's also still blowing out a lot of metal, I have some pics to show that, I am 99 % sure its the aluminum from the case that the crank is taking out, it has been stiff and is starting to loosen up. I bet anything there is a shiny spot on the crank you can see yourself in. Let me know what you think.
