Hi Chris, Is Garth on the forums? If he isn't I have a new Starling as well and was wondering if he was using any extra weight in his plane? As well what his CG was and any other tips?
Nigel.

I tried your phone Garth and it had call restrictions on so I will ask you here.
What is your CG ? Have you added any ballast? Are you using flaps just as flaps or are they ailerons as well? ( My flaps don't rise up very far)
Thanks, Nigel.

Is that all you can list where's the rest;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Only Joking, that's unreal I will tinker tonight. I think I have 28mm of flaps already. Aston and I are going to beachmont on Sunday so it would be good if you could make it.

Looking very smart Garth. I had a little accident with mine, I was having a good fly at a new westerly spot down here and the wind was slowly dropping and I just left it too long to come in . I had an impact on either wing but it is easily fixed. Nigel.
