Has anyone succesfully trimmed one of these? I'm a total newbie, and this is my first plane. I cannot get it trimmed for anything. Should I attempt to trim at full power, half power, 2/3s power? I tried at full but being the newbie that I am, I can't get it right. [:@]
Thanks in advance.

I forgot to mention that I loosened the tail screws and snugged them with no resistance from the control rods going back or forward, and I made sure my elevators/elevons were as closely even as possible.
Also when I turn the Tx on, it calibrates the trim. Should I remember my trim settings each time I turn it on? (Assuming I finally get it dialed in)
Thanks...
