Barry,

I forget who it was but to make sure the stab gets a good glue joint, peel the covering back from underneath the stab at the bottom of the fuselage, and you can glue the bottom of the stab even better. That is what I did and it gave me the "warm and fuzzies"

I think I am still at the stock location. The 45 degree inverted climb show me jsut a touch of nose drop and that takes quite a few seconds to even lose maybe 10 degrees so I am very close to neutral.

whaturi was a bit furhter back on his and had no problem with it at all so you should be fine. Just do not set the elevator throws any more than the book calls for. The elevators are hugely powerful [X(]. I can pull a hard 90 degree turn easily on low rates
