It looks like I missed the wing angle by quite a bit. I remember being at about 0.6deg positive to the stab but I need quite a bit of elevator to fly level and the plane really pulls to the belly in all other attitudes (climbs, dives, knife edge). At this point I'm thinking about wing adjusters until I figure out where I want things to be, but will double-check the thrust angle before making any changes.
I am really rusty after 3 days of flying before losing my plane at Nats last year. It is taking some time getting used to it and flying in general.

So 'a ton' of elevator mix doesn't really appear to be that much when looking at the control surface. It was a lot of clicks due to the high res linkage but maybe only a few degrees of throw. I played with the CG and moving it back didn't really change that but it did feel a little nicer. Thrust line appears to be just right. I'm starting to have some better flight segments. I'll triple check things with the meters before making any changes to the wing incidence but it seems like it needs a slight adjustment to be just right. Probably won't happen before the D4 warmup but we'll see.

Thanks for the reply. This a plane that I rarely fly and has a YS in it. These days getting a new header is impossible so Was thinking to convert it to electric so if there was a belly pan without all the cut outs could bed nice.
