RE: Nuance
Hi all, Mine was measured with the canopy off. Sorry Chris about your plane...... In response to a previous post I am attending the nats with my Nuance. I am about 6 hours away, will be in on Friday. Anyone know where to practice? I have been on a great pattern trip with Hemet CA as the kick off then Boise ID followed by Victoria BC, and then Memphis MI then on to northern Main for about a week of practice and finally to the nats. The trip ODO on the truck reads 8120 since leaving the end of may! I have flown the Nuance in all sorts of weather and have been happy with the performance, I can see differences in performance/rates and speed with altitude and baro changes. John Bentley

RE: Nuance
Hi all, Here is my 2 cents worth. I have set up my Nuance as per the instructions, without wing adjusters, without measuring any incidences. After reviewing the web sites and seeing how each airplane is positioned on a jig to produce the holes for the wing/stab I do not think that anyone could build a more consistent airplane. My airplane required one click of right aileron trim and one click of elevator trim and nothing for the rudder. I aligned the motor against the fuse. I am mixing 2% downline mix NO OTHER MIX required!This is truthfully the first airplane that I did not anally check every measurement. As Steve suggested to me just put it together and fly. As a note this is also the first pattern airplane that the recommended throws and set-up were “right on� for my feel. Most of the setups are just to hot. My balance point is 265 from the rear canopy seam. I am running a Hacker Q80, 20.5/14 prop, Sky lipo 4400, Hyperion ds20-smd servos, Airtronics radio. I slowed down the rudder servo to .19sec to stop a small tail wag. I burn 3700mAh in 7 min, which is about 4 maneuvers more than the advanced pattern .My airplane is winning in the advanced class... 4 contests in 5 weeks! Heading to the NATS in July John
