Default RE: Rolling issues with Comp ARF Impact

Hi All,

I thought I would ressurrect this post to see what people have discovered in regards to aileron differential with this design. I have been putting a fair amount of time on this model lately and it just gets better. However I still dont think the differnetial is quite right. I can live with it but I know it can be better. I have every other part of the flight envolope sorted out. My model flies with no rudd-elev mix (On high-rate rudder)after I adjusted the angle the fuselage flies by adjusting both wing and tailplane incidence. The fuselage flies with a slightly more nose down attitude which also fixed the other problem I had trying to dial in more down thrust.

My model would now have over a 100 flights and the tailplane is still attached. (I did a fair amount of work during construction to ensure mine did not suffer the same fate as others on this list). I think I will build another but I will mount the aileron servos conventionally to ensre the linkage geometry is correct.

How are all the other IMPACT's going out there? It would be great to share some more experiences.
