Title: Trimming session anyone?
Post by: Sean McEntee on March 21, 2017, 07:55:45 PM
Cut lose on block leave, and looking to get my T-6 squared away. Anyone up in Dallas with nothing else going on?  I'll be available 7 days a week, save for a FF contest on the 31st/1st and a trip to the STL on the following weekend. Hit me up!

The Dallas site is about 60 miles from me but if good weather I can be there.  There is a grass circle at the Greater Southwest Aero Modelers RC site, on the east side of Fort Worth.  The Greater Southwest site is about a half hour from me.  Turbulence can be a problem due to surrounding terrain.

This is the windy season for DFW.  Very common to have winds of 15-20, sometimes more, nearly every day.  If we get lucky it calms down a bit.

The racing guys are usually out on Sunday in Dallas. We often run into Steve and Doug Moon and Mike Scott. Strange, They always seem to leave shortly after we show up.  :)

  Just make sure you got that wing straight, and have another set of eyes check it out. That was your major problem, not vertical CG issue. Trim tabs might confirm it, but trying to get it straight will be best solution.
  Good luck with it and keep me posted,
