Les did more than hint, he did it. At a stunt clinic I got to look up close and personal at the ship he took down off the wall of the hobby store, still very nice looking by the way, and he had clear plexi glass extensions of the elevators. I asked about them, "oh, ya noticed, yeah, needed them to get her to turn before the WC contest, didn't have time to re-finish the plane".
With a heavier than a Fox, FP in my Cavalier, I took a clue from less and used his trick. These ships also had shaft extensions on the motors, making moderb heavy power even more of an issue. Les had a K&B which had a real long shaft to boot.
The elevator extension trick worked a like a champ. I built this plane a while back, and if it had adjustable controls I'd have just dialed in more elevator, but since I didn't, this was a viable alternative.
First shot is my Cavalier with tab shot from under my rack, gee, I really need to scrub that thing...
Second shot I took is Les with the plane. If you look really close at the elevators, you'll see the clear tabs.
