I noticed in your gallery you said you were using a flaperon mix?
Is there any adverse yawing effect on slow approaches with flaperons?
Just wonderinhg if your having to compensate with any rudder either manually or through
a P-mix?
I haven't flown it enough yet to get all the trims & mixes fully worked out. The mishap happened on flight #4. [:'(]
I normally switch over to rudder on the landing approach, only using ailerons to keep the wings level or to set the plane into a crosswind. As long as both flaps (or flaperons) are down and move equal amounts, they shouldn't create any problems. That being said, I do have a bit more "down" in the right aileron on this one than the left, something I'll have to fix during the repair also.
Repairs going good so far, just wish I had more time. Fuselage is repaired and has been taken outside for the first sanding&filling before the fiberglass job. I started contruction of the nose wheel box, which contains the nose gear& retract, retract & steering servos, and all the linkages for the gear doors, along with the wiring and micro switch for the nose landing light. The box will be removeable for adjustments and repairs(if and when!)
