Default RE: Lanier Indicator advice--Please!

Beeza, I've used the tape method on Ace wings and it works pretty well. The only problem I had with that arrangement is that after the first hundred flights, it started getting a curve in the wing. (like dihedral) At 18oz, you'd only need to have around 220-250sq in to fly sport-like. Which brings me to a question. Have you checked the balance? If it flies heavy, you could be nose-heavy. More unlikely, but still possible, is that you don't have enough throw on the controls?
