 If I recall correctly, this photo is the trim tab setting I need for level flight at about 150 mph indicated, standard tail surfaces, 24 inch longer fuselage and the c.g. was probably very close to middle of range as it is on most flights with me solo and about half fuel.

It looks like I got very lucky in the building process because 236MS flies wings level. I wish I could say that about the up and down but the internal trim system takes care of that. With no trim she is definitely dropping the nose...… Mike Sylvester kr2s builder Birmingham,AL. Cell no.205-966
