<DIV><EM><FONT face="Lucida Sans" size=4>I'm with you on the cg. I like to
be able to feel the need for down elevator while inverted. Especially in
the wind. I've tried moving the cg back, and find that in windy
situations, you chase the line more because of tracking problems. Having
to use down elevator isn't a problem, it's just getting used to having to use
it. I hadn't thought about using the technique of more down than up and
adjusting with expo for the difference in feel. I'll have to play with
that a little. As far as the 12 degrees of elevator throw goes, was that
enough for spin entry? I suppose you have to carry a little throttle to
elevate the nose and then chop the thottle to get the break. The old
Prophecy I have weighs just a couple oz. over 9 pounds. I ended up having
to use throttle manipulation to get a decent break into the spin, or it would
just float in a flat position. Especially if it was windy. I realize
that a forward cg would help in that area.</FONT></EM></DIV>
<DIV><EM><FONT face="Lucida Sans" size=4>I really apreciate the help on set
up. Dialing it in will be much quicker than the old trial and
error. I'll set it up with a little more right
thrust. I'm going to stick a DZ in the nose and pull the bigger prop,
so I was a little concerned about the thrust issue. How about down thrust?
Any opinion on that?</FONT></EM></DIV>
