The latest improvements were lowering the horizontal stab 20 mm ,
changing the rake of the vertical stab and rudder, changing the
incidence of the main wing and horizontal stab to rotate the plane to
get rid of the tail low attitude and changing the gear. So far so good.<br>

Sorry to hear that. It is pitch sensative dialed down the throw added
a little expo everthings ok. Not sure what your problem was with ground
clearance but I hav eth bolly desafio gear and use a 17-10 still on the
original prop no nicks yet. Have not touhed the cg, aileron throw or
rudder throw since the original flight seems ok to me but I am a
beginner we will see how I do in the new season. <br>
