Thanks ChrisI also have the static source open inside the cockpit since the plans location was poor but wanted to get it back to a more conventional spot .My stall is 53mph IAS and cruise around 125 mph IAS with the 2180 VW and 52x48 Prince P-tip prop. I believe you are running a Corvair?Chris

It is with 5mph of true. 67 mph stall and 175 cruise.

Specifically the static source as per the plans (upper tube for pitot and lower for static) built option has been poor . Turbulence and air flow over the wing and wheel pant cause unstable vertical speed fluctuations. Looking to change my static source to the side of the fuselage like a Cessna or something else. Any thoughts or ideas on this ?
