Cygnet,

In post 239 you did tell me a half story, there was another side we read now, you were a very success full contest pilot. So some extra explanation I realize my answer was too short.

I know that we can make a (individual!) contest plane fly better by adjusting the dihedral but, it also depends on the location of the CG in the fuselage (high or low), also the drag of engine and exhaust, landing gear I think.
Because my Taurus is much heavier than normally used (+/- 4000 gram, propeller 13 x 6!, exhaust, big engine with lots of drag ) I cannot give any advice, maybe other pilots did fly contest and did research on that.
Also my wing construction isn’t standard and so heavier and I cannot split up the wings.
So slow roll is oké and in the past we didn’t have four point roll in the program, I do read Ed did have that.

Just as yours my story has also another side, see the picture.

No contest but practicing!

On final I did have to pass a diagonal polder ditch and barbwire! So with wind I have to be very careful with the flight level because of turbulence. The strip isn’t as long as it looks like, so too high flight level is also wrong. Touch and go is difficult the way is written down in the program, so dihedral and brakes are important. The brakes also to stop before the end of the strip.
Picture 2 is the same position as the plane in post 240,

Now I use a nose gear with suspension, the mains are positioned more backwards behind the C.G and the ATTITUDE is a few degrees positive now like a P63 King Cobra!
