<div>You guys have buttons on your radio??? <IMG src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/tsmileys2/04.gif"> </div> <div>I had a bunch of little silver rods sticking out all over mine, so I broke them all off as they were always getting in the way.. <IMG src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/tsmileys2/11.gif"></div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <div>As for tonights session, well very light wind to no wind.. Perfect weather.. 73 degrees, no clouds.. Man I love California for that.. Oh where was I? </div> <div>Well, I added the 1/2 degree of down back as suggested and I really liked it. I also moved the cg forward, and I really liked that also. I believe I am more nose heavy than you Vicente, I think it was a little more than an inch in front of the tube, and definitely more than Jerry... It flew even better than it did yesterday!! I don't think it's ever flown this good. I could stop now with the adjustments, but I think I will move forward and
try to get rid of some more of the up ele mix in knife. I thought I was at around 15% yesterday, one was 15%, the other side 18%, granted, this is down from the high 20's.. lol.. Now, I'm at 10% on both sides.. And I'm more nose heavy than you guys with Abbra's it seems. I like the feel of the cg.. It feels good where it is.. It is carrying a little up trim in the ele's still (which I expected with moving the cg forward). So that tells me I need to go down with the front of the stabs to center them, but I will wait till I'm done. Still pulls a hair to the canopy after about half of the downline. Not much though. Up lines, and 45's were great.. Inverted 45 drops off as expected. Inverted felt good with the 5% extra down ele that I added. </div> <div>Snaps, well, the positive is good, just fast (which its always been). The negative, better, still a small hesitation to start, then speeding up. Rotation stops good, but not great. Now I am no where near the 18
degrees of aileron throw you recommend Bryan, I am at 12 degrees at this point. 8 degrees regular. I will add some more throw for tomorrow's (after the easter bunny) session. </div> <div>Move the wings ? Or should I go even more noseheavy to create more up in the tail, meaning less up in knife? </div> <div>When I left the field today, I was shocked with how well it flew.. Just need to lock in the snaps I think.. </div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks for the help. </div> <div> </div> <div>Chris</div> <div><BR><B><I>John Pavlick <jpavlick@idseng.com></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.6000.16587" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Nat,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> You use the snap buttons?

What a huge difference that made.. Line's
are better than they have ever been. I've always fought this plane in the wind, even on horizontal straight flights.. Today, horizontal lines were hands off.. And it was pretty windy.. Up lines were much easier to fly. Not sure if it pulls to the canopy up or down as it was windy. But it held the track better all the way around. The wind was straight down the runway, and the plane held it's distance almost by itself. Very little heading corrections were needed. Before, I've always seemed to be on the rudder.. Even without wind. I actually left the field and said, dang, that's the best this plane has ever flown.. Even told the wife!!<IMG src="http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/tsmileys2/04.gif"></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Snaps, well that's still the strange thing. Inverted snaps seem very sluggish, like I break it with down ele, then throw in the aileron and rudder, and you can see the break, then it starts to barrel, then it speeds up and can over rotate a
little ( I added more aileron throw, and took out some elevator and rudder, seemed to help a little. Regular snaps are lightning fast, but they stop when I let go of the sticks. They'd be great if they weren't so fast. I usually use one dual rate switch which is for low and high rate. Never needed anything different. I think I may need to try an inverted snap dual rate and a regular snap dual rate on different switches. That'll be a fun one to remember.. lol</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oh, it carries a little up trim in the ele's now. My knife up elevator mix of 15% on both sides is still there, but the roll coupling changed a little.</DIV> <DIV>I kinda liked how the cg felt, I gave myself 5 percent more down ele so my stick felt the same inverted. Still I think I'd like to try it a little further forward, but I feel it would be a mistake. I didn't change motor thrust yet as I wanted to see the difference of the cg and incidence change first. I did feel I
had too much positive in the wings and that I was a little tailheavy.. That's why I said the honest setup of the plane last time.</DIV> <DIV>So now I am, 0 downthrust, 1/2 pos wings, 0 stab. But it needs a little up trim. I liked the way it flew, and presented today (especially in the wind). Just didn't care for the snaps. </DIV> <DIV>More tomorrow night if I can get out after the easter egg hunt, or Sunday after the race..</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Any suggestions?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks, </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Chris<BR><BR><B><I>shinden1@cox.net</I></B> wrote:</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Chris sorry I have not got back to you<BR>I see you have 3/4 deg pos in the wings ,,thats too much! <BR>too much pos inc, will have the same feeling and response as too much tail weight the rudder will make the nose pitch down in both normal flying or knife ,,,and even vertical

trimming<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Water Closet (WC) is a toilet that disposes of the waste by using water to flush it through a drainpipe to another location. Modern toilets incorporate an 'S' bend; this 'trap' creates a water seal which remains filled the 'S' bend also provides siphon action which helps accelerate the flushing process. Water filling up the bowl creates a high pressure area which forces the water past the S bend. At the S bend when water starts to move it creates a vacuum that pulls the water and waste out of the toilet. When no more water is left then the air stops the siphon or vacuum process. At that point the water that is going into the bowl continues to fill up the bowl to equalize the bowl and the S bend. This ends the cycle of one flush. Since there were no rooms designated for toilets or crappers as they were called (named after John L Crapper, inventor of the flush toilet) the term Water Closet was coined as homes that had the out houses moved
