Default Roll out

I have a CAP 232 from Superkraft/Kangke and it rolls out to the right if you pull too much elevator. Not a fun airplane as everytime I fly it I am waiting to get "bit".

It is weird. On landing I can slow it down and it acts normally. Seems to only act up during loops or other up elevator applications. Some very small part of the wing is stalling enough to lose alittle lift only in one small spot.

One thing I want to try is to really "smoke" down the covering just to make sure I don't have a small area that is lifting enough to effect the aerodynamics. You might try that too.

If I can't get it corrected it's going to the flea market next chance but I will be talking with Kangke at the WRAMS show if I get up there.

Mine doesn't snap out. Just rolls out and aileron will catch it with no adverse effects. I think it's the nature of the beast with the highly tapered wing. Would be nice to get alittle wash out in it but those Chinese build a wing that wasn't meant to be changed. One tough wing.

Back to Bipes.

Good luck.
