Thanks Guys.

We are going to make a change for the balance. She is a bit tail heavy and I am going to take the two servos for the Rudder out, and place a single 100OZ servo in the fusalage center. Then run cables tothe horns.

In the video Rod put it up to a inverted 45 degree climb. The planes tail started to rise. Also inthe first nose down, the tailwas trying to come over the nose in the decent.

We feel that this will be the best at this time. It is great to know that she flys so well at this point. Oce teh changes are made it will need another flight.

Thanks again!

Pete
