On launching, the left wing dipped too much and as you can see in the video, the turn opened up significantly.

After the crash and repair, I removed some left thrust, added about 3/16" Gurney flap about the length of the aileron, and added some left rudder. I also lowered the prop pitch by about two degrees. That's when it started to turn better, keep the wing up and would easily ROG.

Regards.
