Another Frankenstein plane 2m

[bobogofast]

Combination of a crashed radian fuse i had, a c pack motor, ranger ex wing, and some bits from a sky hunter. this was the maiden flight. flew pretty good but it did want to pitch up a bit. I checked the cg and was ok so i am guess maybe i need a little more down incident built into the elevator? Any thoughts are appreciated.

What does the angle between the elevator and horizontal stabilizer look like when you have it trimmed for level flight at a particular power setting?

Wow! That's a pretty good looking Frankenplane.

I started with everything centered and trimmed even but after the first flight I had put all the down trim in a I could. Power off is a little better but even in level flight I feel like it's trying to stall itself

Hmm.... You might want to make it more nose-heavy. That will help keep it from trying to pitch up.

I will check the cg again and put a little more weight, but if the cg is correct is there anything else it could be?

I would guess its the horizontal stabilizer causing the issue. You either run a vert / hor stab configuration or a V Tail. I have never seen both on one plane so I assume there is a reason.

It's actually just a yank and bank the vertical stabilizers are there just for yaw stability. I will try adjusting the horizontal with a little more down trim into it. Will try it tomorrow and let you guys know! Thanks for all the input
