Hi Brian,

I know Ty has a lot of experience with the TT, so I will let me lead on the plane's characteristics.

A lot of trim changes can affect what you are describing, however, on the plane you have.  A lot of fliers fly nose heavy which while giving a rock steady feel, slows down the plane, all else fairly equal.  I took a few *lessons* from Bob Hunt and Billy Werwage and now fly with the planes a lot more rearward on the CG.  it takes a *little* getting use to, but feels much better once you have made the transition.  Control ratios and handle spacing also greatly affect the cornering.   Sometimes 1-1 is the best set up, sometimes more elevator is needed especially if the plane is fairly light wing loading.  It all depends.  I know that tred had about 1/4 inch or more droop inthe elevator relative to the flaps on his Final Edition (or whichever he had at the 2004 Worlds).  This helps to make the plane turn better outsides.

Don't give up on the TT you have until you have tried several things (one at a time) on trimming.  A good plane is made even better by properly trimming it out, as you well know.  From all accounts, a Trophy Trainer is a good flying profile, so design isn't much of a factor, trimming it to suit you is!

Hi Brian,

I had the same experiemce with a profile I am still flying.
After all the adjustments and trim tricks, all to no avail, I discovered the motor was NOT in line with the wing & stab!!
So after leveling the plane with the wing & stab, I put a small bubble weight on the prop shaft and slightly enlarged the motors mounting holes till I could align the motor level with the wing & stab.
Now it turns the same both ways!!

"Tight Lines!"
