[NSRCA-discussion] Trim issues

This may be a stupid question from someone with limited experience but are
you coordinating rudder when doing 45 up or down point rolls? It will be
needed unless the CG is quite far back, like way back. I was able to reduce
most of these type problems and the necessary rudder inputs with a more
rearward CG. Excess down and right thrust also seam to contribute to a
variety of problems through out the flight. A 45 up line generally needs a
higher power setting than that used for trimmed horizontal flight.

Have a question for you expert trimmers out there.

My Prestige, other than one little thing seems to be almost perfectly
trimmed, CG is good and to my liking, Differential is good, *****Knife Edge
flight is straight******

#1)  On the 4 of 8 on a 45 up line, rolling to the right, at point 2 it
veers off to the belly to the point I won't do them this direction!
       Why is that???????

#2)  How do you add a scoche of down at idle for down lines??  I have been
unable to trim this out but hear everyone talking about a little down mix at
idle.  I have JR 10SX.  Do you only have the down input at total idle (stick
all the way back)  2 clicks idle ect??

Thanx in advance

Ed
