Extra 60-90 flight question!...take 2...:)
 
Hey guys, had a post malfuntion, hehe. Anyway, I maidened my new 60-90 Extra 300 and I love the plane, very well built and all (i have a Saito 100 in mine)....but it does one thing I am not liking. that is, it snaps out to the right with any kind of aggressive elevator input whether on high or low rates :( What I was wondering was what actually can cause that and/or can it be fixed? Or.....is it something I have to live with? The plane is straight and CG is spot on. Flies perfect otherwise.....<div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); padding-top: 5px; padding-right: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 5px; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; ">
Thanks</div>

I have the exact same issue with my extra 300. I balanced it laterally but that didn't do much of anything to help the snapping. My only guess is that the elevator may flex under the load but it would be really great to hear what AW has to say.

Yeah, I actually only noticed it after my kid told me to "slam the elevator back" and see what happens.......when I am flying it the way I normally do, no problems at all. Funny thing in reading up on this is it seems some do it and some don't. :(
