This past Sunday as I told everyone, I got to fly my NexSTAR with the aid of an instructor. On the first flight the aircraft had a good bit of downward pitch and a bit of roll. I should also mention that we removed the speedbrake / training flaps before the flight at his recommendation and we disconnected the AFS. My instructor trimmed the ailerons to get rid of a little roll and trimmed the rudder a bit as well. It was pitching downward too when the stick was released and he had to put in a lot of up elevator to level it out and land. Once back on the ground he made a couple of adjustments on the elevator to get rid of the downward pitch. Then we were able to fly normally.

Right now the plane can be flowed easily but the elevator is still trimmed on the transmitter a little bit, the rudder is trimmed some and the ailerons too. Is this fine or should corrections now be made to the mechanical rigging to get the trim switches to neutral or real close to it? Seems to me that you would not want to have to trim the flight controls every time you fly.
