Looks like I would try a little ballast. Congrats on getting it back on the course.

We still need to ballance it ,as we can not use a ballast tank(P1 rule ) We tested with a 21 rake prop what probably made it to nose light and tried to lift the nose . We still need to ballast it to the power /weight ratio (1/3.5)
