The strap between the bumper stops on the gear box of our fast build
kit was not installed at the factory.  The part is GM 459-104.  The
factory does not know if this is a one-time problem or more pervasive.
 Please check your gearbox for this part or may all your landings be
soft.

A note on the ailerons on the IVP:  We were able to balance our
ailerons with lead by extending the lead forward of the flange on the
top side.  We did this by making a mold utilizing dental alginate and
plaster and pouring lead to the right shape.  The aileron is also
several pounds lighter than the one we did with tungsten powder due to
the leverage advantage of moving the lead further forward.  If you
want more details, I can publish here or email me directly.

Thanks for all the great information on this site.
Carl Cadwell, IVP to be
