When the airspeed was increasing, I was actually trimming a bit more nose up :roll: However, moving the Empty CofG forward one foot fixes the problem. Finally, moving the main gear contact point forward one foot restor...

Thanks for the information guys. The trim does operate in the correct sense Kevin, so I may have a different version that the one you have. I've made some minor changes to the cfg file and seem to have made some progress. 1) Increased wing incidence angle to 3 degrees. It seems to cruise in a slight...
