Default RE: Knife edge trimming question

Alp
Dean is right
probably need a little more pos inc in the wing
use the snaps to determine if you are tail heavy,, I think your are not at this time.
if you were,, the right rudder knife edge would be going to the belly also.
When you get the wing inc more positive the say .75 you will also have straight downlines along with the perfect left rudder knife.

another way to fine tune you c/g
do a knife edge loop ,,, at the bottom of the loop with minimal throtle if you go to the belly ,,tail heavy and vise versa.
fine tune you snaps with the rudder input ,,always use at least 18 deg of ail. throw for upline snaps,
and very little elevator. ,,, this will need to be fine tuned once you have adjusted the c/g perfectly

re- read my article very carfully all the information you need is in there
