The plane takes off climbing and rolling left. I can barely be held with stick control, but the deflection requ irked is too much for just trim. I have checked the wing and stab incidences which are close to zero-zero with a Robert incidence meter. Balance is close to the wing tube after 2.5 oz lead attached to the rear of the balsa firewall. The previous owners said that it flew well with a yS 1.60dz, and I am using a 1.40 L. The small difference just can't be the cause. I could understand the pitch problem with a bad CG, but not the rolling. I have ordered a new incidence meter from central hobbies on the theory that mine Is off, but I really doubt this to to be the problem. Meanwhile I have been flying a Venus2 with an OS 1.20 Ax as well as a curare with a TT .61. I mention this because that are two very different planes and the Hitec aurora 9 transmitter is working flawlessly. The servos are hitec digital 5625's and I see no problem with them on the ground. I wouldn't bothering everyone with this if it were not, really frustrating. I am really asking if anyone has had a similar problem with this specific airframe. It may be a stab in the dark. Fred

The problem is that the plane is almost unflyable. I have flown it four times, found it to be all over the sky and have been unable to trim it reliably at all. I have some questions. Where is the CG recommended to be? Has anyone else had this problem. I have been flying for twenty years in pattern and have never had this problem before. I have discussed the problem with my flying buddy, a masters class flyer of great skill, but without resolution. The fact that I have able to land the plane without damage has been nothing short of miraculous. Any help would be appreciated. Fred
