The "Go Devil" saga.

I had the almost finished plane given to me a year ago or so. When I flew it the inside turn was slothful and the outside turn was viscious. I tried several fixes to no avail so I set it aside for the raffle. Having nothing to do and doing it quite well I tried one more fix. I adjusted the bellcrank to flap push rod so I only have about 15 degrees of down elevator and a lot of up.I put a spare O.S. .40LA in the nose with an APC 11 x 4 prop.I'll give it a try in the morning after I check the thrust lines of the engine. I've been having perfect weather for trimming flights all summer so far. It has rained almost every afternoon for a month now too. But not enough to fill the ditches too much.
