Temptation Set up
 

Just flew my freshly aquired Temptation. I am looking for suggestions on incidence and CG. I first flew it with the set up that was there when I purchased it. 0-0 and cg at the front of the tube. Yuck! I then went to .5 for another go not knowing that it is designed for 0 and it seemed to be better. With a little advice I know this will be a great airplane but right now its not happy at all.
Help please!

The ones I flew several years ago had 1/2 degree positive in the wing and a CG about 1/4 inch in front of the wing tube.

Rick,

At 0+ incidence and cg on the tube, the plane will go hard to belly in both knife edges.

You need at least 1/2+ and you might go as much as 3/4+. Move the cg forward as Joe sez.

Another thing I found helped my fuse was adding a dorsal fin just in front of the regular fin. These changes were made so that rudder to elevator mixing could be minimized
