Jan 14, 2022 6 Flight Day 10 - Phase 1 Complete! Category: Flight
A windy and gusty day from the NW. Completed over 40 hrs as recorded by G3X.

Preflight
- Inspected roll trim servo and found a loose connection. Roll trim works now.
- Added 1 qt oil to 7.5 qts
- Changed pitch trim settings to reduce aggressiveness based on suggestions from VAF.

Flight Summary
Flew both RNAV approaches at KCPC. Control was good until full flaps, then got large drop in pitch and oscillation. Flew to KACZ, landed, refueled, and set additional intermediate flap position settings so have more step-downs. Flies much better with more gradual flap extension, essentially slowing rate of flap. extension. Flew RNAV 23 circle to 05 with strong 12 kt crosswind and gusts to 16 kts.
