After flying the Bearcat I knew some changes had to be made. First I removed the 1 degree shim under the engine then I moved the elevator push rod to a higher hole to cut down the elevator travel. I took a set of 63.5 foot lines and put them on the Hound Dog. After flying with the longer lines I put 62 footers back on. The Hound Dog likes the shorter lines. The Bearcat responded to the changes very well. It didn't hunt like it had and handled the rough air quite well.
The balsa order came in yesterday afternoon and I got started on the fuselage right away. Today it's ready to be skinned but I'm holding off so I can remember to do something before closing things up. Ribs and tail pieces to be cut out yet.
