<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1 full degree positive is too much on the wing. try
it at 1/4 deg positive and the stab at 0.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Set the engine at 4 deg right and 1 deg down....I
have seen these need as much as 5 degrees or some creative mixing. (With a 17"
prop).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Set the CG at the aft point of the range, that wing
performs better with the CG at the rear of the range.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Start from there and flight trim it. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have question on setting up this plane for F3A
type of flying. As per plan, set up is 3 - 4 deg right thrust, 2 deg down
thrust, +1 deg wing incidence, 0 deg stab incidence and CG at wing tube
location. My previous plane (same model, weight 4.9 kg) experienced that +1
deg wing incidence was too much and CG was too far forward.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am finishing my next model from scratch soon
and need advices to set up. My model configuration is OS140RX, Hatori pipe,
APC17X12, Pasto engine mount (self made, Thanks to Mr. Bob), Futaba 9Z radio
gear, CP25 fuel and expected weigth 4.6 kg.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>TIA,</FONT></DIV>
