Don, I finally got to program the transmitter for spoilers and it has definitely improved the landing "stick". Not nearly as floaty. I didn't have the tx manual with me at the field, so it took a while to figure out since I hadn't done such programming for a long time.
I was quite puzzled the first time I deployed the spoilers when the nose of the airplane actually rose![X(] I had initially programmed in a bit of up elevator, but I found I had to take out that much and more just to get it to fly level with spoilers. Seems the ailerons were acting like ailevators. Hmm... weird... Well, I'll get that worked out, and it's nice to have gotten a handle on the float-on-forever tendency. Also leaned out the idle a bit and got the rpm's down a smidge, which also didn't hurt.

I guess I need all the help I can get. Our runway is 27 feet wide and about 200 feet long, so I suppose it has made me a better "lander." I always land on the runway, but the roll-out doesn't always finish there.
I admit you have your hands full. Good Luck !
