Default RE: Profile P-38 on FLOATS- HELP

Hey twinman,.... Jim this plane is notorius for being a hard one to jank off the deck as is. (if you didn't already know). We have a nasty bump at the very end of our runway and that was the only place mine would get airbourne. And that was with .25 LA's. So twinmans FX's should be a help, BUT it's still been a problem for guys with this little bird. Twinman, mine was liter, by about a lb.
Still it should lift off, I think Jim is heading you in the rite direction. I have some, and have seen other seriously overpowered float planes fight to get off the water if the float setup is wrong.
Keep us posted.
