It's a pretty quick roll-out, so I'm thinking it's most likely not the elevators, but I will definitely double-check them.

Hey, I have no objection to moving that CG back a little more =) I can't move the battery pack back any farther, unfortunately, so I may have to add weight.

Thanks for the advice Bill.

I actually edited to include more info on the previous post so you may want to check it again


Actually, I'm thinking just the opposite, a pretty quick roll out would be either very nose heavy but I think it's most likely the elevators are giving you an issue.

They may be exactly lined up when you look at them at neutral or full deflection, but it could be that one is getting there before the other and if the plane does the exact same thing everytime then it's a good possibility.

\Lateral balance could be a problem as well
