It is only on the right side, only when full, and stops after I have flown the 1st 1/2 hour off that side. I'm sure some of it might be that I'm not perfectly coordinated, but even when I pay real close attention to the ball I get intermittent flow in even the lightest turbulence.During the test period I even went as far as putting a 90 degree turn tube directly into in air flow.---No better. My vent tube is per design with a 45 degree cut facing forward, and I fly a 320. If anyone has had any experience with a problem like this ,I sure would like to know the solution. Sincerely, Fred N9BF
