Default Ultra Stick Nose Weight

That's strange. My 120 Ultra Stick will go into and hold a knife edge with very little coaxing. I thought the 40 version was virtually identical in miniature. Are you sure you have the rudder throw maxed out?
I have tried KE with several different amounts of rudder throw without success. My entry is to pitch up a little, roll 90 degrees, and apply rudder. As soon as I start to apply rudder my US 40 simply rolls out. If I try to cross control it pitches up and rolls out anyway. There is very stong roll coupling with rudder on the US 40's that I have flown. My wing is perfectly flat, maybe I should have tried anheadral ala Ed Moorman's sticks in his R/C Report column...

Am I doing something wrong?

Cheers!
