Default Help with making a THR to ELEV mix, 9C

If your engine experiences wide trim changes with throttle application, then the thrust line of the engine needs to be adjusted.

If you add throttle and the plane tends to nose up, then you need to add some down thrust. Changing the thrust line a small amount at a time will greatly reduce the need to adjust the trim of the elevator when you change the throttle.
