Vanquish flies slightly nose high.

As the title says, the plane has a 2-3 degree nose high appearance at mid to high throttle. It has no elevator trim visually, and 0 degrees on the stab and +.5 degrees on the wing. C/G is such that only a modest amount of down elevator when inverted. Suggestions welcome. I'll try them tomorrow. TIA guys.

Hi Gary, I found that 0.6 to 0.7 degrees plus wing incidence tends to be better with the Vanquish than the recommended. That's where all of mine have been set.

Yes, that was mentioned when I was flying with Rene today at the Georgetown field. He seems to think he heard of this situation on the Vanquish before. I'll give that a try next week.
