    I'm not sure what you expected but I don't think you have enough HP
    to go that fast.  And its certainly not slower than an FG!

      I have recently flown off my restriction on my IO-390-X MT
        SERG but have hit a wall at 170kts which I cannot seem to break
        through. I recently went to the factory and spent a fantastic
        morning with John and Scott was they went through the bird and
        Scott even took it up for a flight. He commented that it climbs
        really well, just that it is slower then an FG. 
      

      
      I turned up the ailerons two full turns so they are about an
        1/8 of an inch up vs being an 1/8 down when they stick was in
        the middle, it helped set my elevators so they too now sis a
        couple of degrees up from neutral but still cannot get past
        170kts in level flight. 
      

      
      I did have John come visit me last week and we completed his
        MEI so he is ready for all of you to do your checkouts on the
        V-Twin! So get on the phone and order your kits!!

            The Reflector has been quiet this week.
              Hopefully that means that everyone is busy flying or
              building.
             
            I'd love to hear what the Velocity
              community is working on. If your bird is in the air tell
              us where you're flying.
             
            I've been spending my time on the
              wings; aileron torque tubes, wiring for nav/pos/strobe
              lights, and final fitting of the rudders. I'm trying to
              complete all the wing tasks that can be done without them
              attached to the fuselage.
