Alrighty then....

First contest in the books along with flights 3 thru 7 go figure.

Plane is not locked in much better. I had initially not put the fins on and trimmed plane for straight and level and noted that the plane pulls to canopy in knife edge and also in down lines. It also rolls to its back with rudder.

So.... being the weather sucked I didnt make any changes to the plane and I wanted Mark H (Designer) to fly it and evaluate.

Mark H flew it... he flew it very very well and we have deteremined that....

CG is forward a bit which should take out the issue of pulling to the canopy and need to mix out the roll couple although slight.

So.... onto the fins.. I had a ton of right trim to get the thing to fly straight and also need to stab right rudder when pulling into verticals under power when the fins were off.

Fins on... all right trim gone. Very little pressure on the rudder when pulling to verticals.
