Default RE: Seagull Edge .46 Flight Issues....

firstly, its over powered. Try a .55 or .57 based on a .46 crankcase. Your cg is too far forward hence the current flight characteristics. Thats why your instructor told you to move it aft.Secondly, small scale aerobats need gentle elevator input. You cannot yank these planes around at all. Maybe soften the expo'on your radio to reduce initial control surface travel.
