[NSRCA-discussion] Masters Avalanche question

[krishlan fitzsimmons]

How does the snap look though, as compared to the 45 down 1 1/2 snap?
Are you keeping your speed up? I like to. 

Try it several times in a row with things such as using less rudder one time. Try it again with even less. Now try it with less elevator and full rudder. Try it with even less elevator and full rudder. Then ease off the rudder and keep trying it. It's tough to try these things as most are used to going to the corners (unless you are a switch guy). But eventually, you'll get the hang of it. 

Leading helps, but is easy to detect IMO on top of a loop. 

I'm guessing you may be too slow and have too much elevator or rudder. Just a guess. Take it for what it is. lol. Not like I've seen you fly it.. lol

I’m having trouble with the Masters Avalanche and
wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions or was experiencing the same
problem. 

  

Entering the maneuver left to right then pushing the half
loop to the snap, If I attempt a positive snap to the right (which rotates the
plane away from the flight line) the nose comes around nicely to complete the arch
of the loop, but ends pointing about 20 degrees away from the flight line. If I
stay on the rudder after the snap I can immediately put the plane back in line,
but it’s quite ugly and obvious rather than smoothly exiting the snap
parallel to the flight line. I’ve tried using less rudder, but have not
been able to get that to work any better. 

  

I’ve also tried an outside snap but to me this looks
terrible and the nose is elevated on exit.  

  

The plane is a Beryll. 

  

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

  

Thanks, 

Keith Black
