- I found this as I was swapping the prop on my Commander for the recommended 3S Prop. I looked at the spare parts list in the manual and didn't see a part number listed. So, DON"T LOSE IT!!!
Good to know buddy!
Hi, Chunky C! What did you do to straighten out your Commander from pitching up? I also moved my batteries as far forward as I could, and it's still floaty. CG looks good... I had to put ~20+ clicks of down elevator on the trim. OR just fly ~35-40% most of the time to stay level.

If the CG is correct then make sure all flight controls are neutral. Never assume the factory got it right. If the flight controls are neutral then it could be an incidence issue, but it being a foam molded plane, there's not much you can do about that except to trim it for neutral. Fly the plane and trim at around 75% throttle (or what % you normally fly it). When you land, take a look at the position of the elevator and re-center the trims. Disconnect the ball link from the elevator control horn and adjust the ball link until the elevator is in the approximate position that it was in when it was trimmed. Continue flying, trimming, and adjusting until it flies level when all trims are neutral. It may take a few flights to get it right, but hey, you were planning on flying it anyway. Do this on all surfaces, aileron, elevator, and rudder. All planes fly a little different. I do recall my Commander having a tendency to pitch up. I just trimmed and left it. Also, if you trim step in your radio is set to "fine" then I wouldn't worry too much about it. Hope this helps...
