OTOH Larry Coslick has some models with 70% of the stab area on the left
side. The purpose was to induce extra stab tilt under high torque
launches in low ceiling sites.
At my last flying session at St. Lukes I tried to get my F1M to fly in
the high part of the room. It took all day to accomplish that which I
did mainly by increasing stab tilt (had no other choices available). I'm
not sure if added stab offset will be the answer for the low powered
parts of the flight but it's worth a try.
