<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Well, Claude,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We still have some things to talk about and that's
good.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't know if I think duplicating Tom's numbers
for the Partner is a sure solution in light of the fact that he has not built or
flown the airplane. Who knows, he may hate it even after he completes the
trimming process. Of course the opposite could also be true.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Aha, I was right about the adjustments made to the
Eclipse. I'm assuming the full turn made to the adjusters was in the positive
direction and that probably results in about a half degree change and probably
was more than enough to correct the belly pitch in spite of the fact that the
change in battery position would possibly require corrective down elevator trim.
A lot of stuff is affected with C.G. alterations.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I got to thinking about the adverse roll issue last
night after reading Matt's suggestion about the ventral. Adding the additional
area to the rudder in that area lowers the center of pressure and gives a boost
to proverse effects. Another consideration would be to knock out the wing tube
tunnel in the fuse and raise the wing about 1/2". Of course this should be one
or the other, not both, unless you want something that does a terrific barrel
roll. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Once again, no solid theory here, just opinions
based on what has worked for me.</FONT></DIV>

empirical results I have to go on is from lowering the stab on the Eclipse and
then moving it up. After I moved the horizontal stab the airplane slightly
pitched and I must admit I don’t remember which way. The adjustments I made
were about a turn on the wing adjusters and I moved the two cell lithium pack
from in front of the tank to behind the tank. Before I moved the stab up I had
6% and 10% elevator mix with rudder. What really bothered me was a friend of
mine built an Eclipse and put his stab in the stock position and he was not
having pitch problems. The ironic thing is he was the person that told me to
lower it to begin with. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I have to confess that most of my
opinions are based solely on the empiricle results of building my own designs
and finding out through experience what works. I'm sure you're aware that
"what works" for one individual is not always going to be "what works" for
someone else. To demonstrate, in my opinion, the Eclipse you had with the stab
at the 3/8" lowered point was as close to neutral as is possible with the
design. If you have a plane that pulls with one rudder and pushes with the
other that should be equalibrium and the mixes to trim this out should be in
the 2% bracket. You can't see 2% ! When you raised the stab back up, the
rudder that was pushing should have seen an amplification of that problem, so
I would have to conclude that your "little adjustment" altered something
additional to affect the aerodynamic effects
involved.</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I also like to see a design that

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">The numbers I quoted are nothing
more than good sounding measurements based on the limited info available. It
really gets a lot more detailed than can be resolved without actually seeing
the airplane and doing some actual measuring, however, the dihedral thing is
probably a real close guess.....and yes it's as tough to change as you think
especially with plug in wings. Maybe a new set of cores with the proper tube
angles would be the easiest......and yeah, I too like bantering the
aerodynamic techie stuff (not that I'm all that
qualified).</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

you gave me what it takes to fix a Partner? Does a Partner roll in knife
edge? I thought the Partners were pretty good. I can tell you I lowered the
stab 3/8” on an Eclipse and it pushed to the gear with left rudder and to
the canopy with right rudder. Dave Guerin just looked at the plane and said
“the stab is too low” so I raised it the diameter of the stab tube (about
7/16”) and with a little adjustment it fixed it. I don’t have any mix in the
airplane and it flies great. I am not a fan of mixing problems out if you
can fix it with out mixing. Any way this experience really got me interested
in these measurements. By the way how do you go about adding dihedral to
plug-in wings? Is it as difficult as I think it is? Any way I find this kind
of stuff more interesting than interrupting the judging criteria of a figure

Genesis is a Partner copy and I want to see if the setup is the same.
Another one in our group is going to build a Genesis this winter and if
the Partner is set up different he is going to set it up like the Partner.
Roberts’s plane, the guy with the Genesis ARF, will tuck to the gear and
roll right with left rudder. It is not as bad with the right rudder. The
guys in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Chicago</st1:City></st1:place> have Genesis and some are having
