Default RE: Anyone flying a Seagull EP X-ray?

Thanks for your input guys,

Judging by the lack of response to this post it seems fair to say that this plane doesn't seem to be too popular with the forum members at this moment in time

Greg1, sounds like you had your hands full. For a plane specifically designed for 3-D, a tendency like snapping on the small angular transition into a harrier should not occur. Did it drop a wing when it snapped? I must admit that I had wondered about tip stalling when I saw the wing plan form.

It sounds to me to have been incredibly pitch sensitive. Did you try moving the CofG forward? I currently fly a PA Electric Shock with 45 degrees of movement on all control surfaces and that never snaps unless I want it to.


Best wishes,

Dave
