Was curious if the group had any thoughts on this. Been flying my pitts still searching for that elusive hands and feet off straight and level flight. I have added 2.5 washer thickness in between the cross tube for the horizontal stab. The problem is even with full trim (only one tab on my elevator) I have a very heavy forward stick. Was thinking of adding a few more washers but not sure. I don't want to go through the process of adding another trim tab on the other elevator. Has anyone else experienced this in there s1's?

The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.
The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.
