Aki,

Thank you again for your information. Now I know where to look for
improvement and how much I may be able to find.

One of the better fliers here in the U.S. wrote me a private email
reply and recommended that I use a lower high pitch stop and less pre-
load in the spring so that the flight profile climbs to the roof on
the high stop, descends ~10 feet, and then climbs back to the roof.
Have you tried this kind of flight profile, and why do you prefer the
one we discussed earlier better?

Thanks again.
Eric Monda
