stall turn

[Rcmaster199 at aol.com]

Ed,


The first thing you should check for is CG. If the plane is nose heavy, then 
fix that and try again.

If the plane has a good CG, then do what Jim sez

Matt Kebabjian

PS- If you are not sure what to look for to determine if CG is right or not, 
contact me off list to discuss
