no sweat crashland. What I suggested most people will not do. I learned a while ago that it's much easier and more fun to fly a plane that has been trimmed correctly plus during those trim fl9ight is when you really get to know the plane.

I compete and since it's hard enough to remember wind correction and a host of other things, the last thing I want to do is fight a plane through a maneuver that is out of trim.

The Cap you have is really nice. Keep the elevator throws low. Do exactly what the book says for the throws no more. It will not look like much but the elevators on any Cap are extremely powerful and if setup with too much throw will cause an unwanted snap at the wrong time, especially at any speed.

I'm not trying to scare you at all, I'm a huge Cap fan and in almost every case of someone complaining of a snappy Cap, it can almost always be traced back to to much elevator throw at too fast a speed. Caps are not meant to fly fast, in fact they do there best thing which is a tumble, at very slow speeds

Here is a video of RCU member whaturi flying a GP Cap232. This was my old one which snapped the front clean off in an off field landing. I gave it to him and bought myslef another one and he loved it
