[NSRCA-discussion] Masters Set-Up

[J N Hiller]

Thanks Anthony. I wanted to try a more rearward CG to reduce the nose dip.
Returning from the field yesterday I concluded that I need to work this out
using my #2 airplane preserving the primary set-up for Advanced competition
until I can get comfortable with Masters. It is a sizable step up and will
take some time / effort. It would be real comfortable to remain in Advanced
but I need to move.
Thanks for the encouragement.
Jim

I went the oppisite route moved the Cg back to reduce the amount of forward
stick in straight level inverted. To reduce sensitivity I increased the push
expo. Try both.
Welcome back.
