So, I recently built a Mirage 2000 and flew it a bunch. I have never had a Delta wing before and don't know what or if I can do anything about my nosedive issue.
I have perfect C of G and the edf is at the back of the plane. (See pics) thrust tube is dead straight or at least 99% perfect. I have made a flew edf jets and never experienced this before.
My cad partner informed me he finished his prototype and flew it with the exact same results I am having. (80% up trim for level flight) We know the wing is level and c of g is perfect.
Here is the question:
Should the thrust tube be directed upwards a few degrees or should the edf be placed in the middle of the fuselage to correct the nosedive issue? Or is there a question/answer I'm missing to resolve this. We want to release the plans but we need a resolve first...
Thx everyone
