So today was the day I finally maidened my FT Tiny Trainer that I built from the plans. Crashed in about thirty seconds haha. It kept pitching nose down luckily still in one piece. Threw it up again and I had it all the way trimmed for elevator and it was still pitching down. I had pull back on the stick about 60 percent just to try keep steady altitude. Unfortunately I ended up crashing again into the only 1/2 inch standing water in the entire field. My electronics got wet for sure and are currently drying. Hopefully everything still works.
Besides the foam getting wet, nothing actually broke apart on the plane, thats nice.
As far as fixing my elevator issue, so should I just adjust my pushrod to give it more elevator so it does keep going nose down?
The picture attached is preflight.
