Hi Duane,
You must be operating right at the forward CG limit.
Where is your battery and ELT?
Adding the extra 1 lb to the tail will help. More
would be better. Just 5 lbs back there makes a big
difference. Also the gap seals and maybe vortex
generators under the horizontal stab would do good
too.
If you move the CG a little more aft you will find
that your stick will be fine as is.
The electric trim has always been a bit overpowering
and there is a "fix" somewhere in this list's history.
I trim and immediately beep once for opposite trim to
make small changes. After a few such reversals I can
get mine to hold right on altitude, but a 1/2 rate or
manual trim would be better. Is yours manual?
The more off the center of your CG, the more touchy
the trim is.
I am near the fwd CG limit too. For my testing, I
added 7 gallons of water to the baggage compartment to
achieve center CG flight. It flys there as
advertised. I kept to the fwd limit so I could carry
max pax and cargo and stay in limits. With just me on
board, I can trim to 60 knots and 3 point up to 1/2
flaps. Full flaps takes some work but I can get a
stall there too.
