Default RE: It Flys

Thanks Troy, I should get a good bit of flights on it next week. Elevator trim was more like 3/32 of an inch of up. I hate to say to much as I really did not get to fly it as much as I would have liked. I do remember trying some flat turns and it was pitching to the belly and in knife edge flight. Inverted flight needed a good push I but did not remember it being excessive. I started with the CG at about 180mm but I don't get to technical with CG setting on the bench as I get it in the ball park and fly it, could have been 175mm? I will deffinitly start moving it back. Only other ting I noticed was some Ail. trim, Ailirons have about a 32nd to a 16th of an inch warp from end to end so setting nuetral was difficult, Im going to try and straighten them this week by clamping one end to the bench and shimming the other end a little to see how they will react. Next week I should be able to get a couple gallons through it and sort these things out.
