Improvement.

I took the Nomad X and the .60 to the park for a test flight. I changed tanks on the 60 and that helped a lot. I managed to get in a full pattern on 4 ounces of fuel. At home I removed the tail weight and put a muffler extension on.
  The X has a much better turn rate with the larger elevators and is competitive now.
  I have the new wing almost finished. It's out of the jig and fits into the fuselage cutout snugly. I have decided not to use the salvaged stab/elev piece as it's not flat and no way to verify it's in line with the wing. I'll have to build a new one from the plans but with a longer span.
