Hi Guys,

I've been looking through instruction manuals of trianers at the LHS to see what type of information may be printed in them that isn't in my current trianer's manual. I've noticed that there seems to be many steps/tips/tricks that are in some but not present or just skipped in others.

As a relatively new builder, and a tyro pilot, I've found that many of the things that I've found in the manuals are pretty necessary, but not present in the trainer's instructions that I purchased. Which has led me to wonder just what else I'm missing.

To help correct these oversites, how about we post tips that we've picked up or were taught along the way. Such as checking the incidence of the tail plane to the wings, my trianer doesn't mention word one about this.

Waddya say? Lets compile a checklist of building "necessaries" that we all need to follow to make sure our hard work doesnt' become dust.

I'll start with what I wrote above.

Check the incidence of the tail plane to the wing to make sure that they are parallel to one another, so you avoid the tendency to bank to one side needing lots of trim to fix.
