Default RE: Phoenix Models Super Decathlon ???

Thankx for the feedback! I thought the sympton might have been due to the wrong setup on my part. All my other planes will keep sufficient speed up with out interferring with its self sustained glide path so that all I have to do is keep the plane level and lined up until its time to flair. On this plane I have to hold some down elevator to keep the nose down until I am low over the runway. I did have a 40 size Zero that had a very fast glide unless I held in lots of up elevator to slow it down. It was controllable but you had to be on top it. On the plus side, it made the plane very easy to land even in windy conditions.
