Hi Scotty
I'm not flying yet but looked into this alot as I own a 320
small tail kit. I too didn't want to buy the larger tail but as I was at the
point of installing it I went ahaed and bought it.
BUT check your CG carefully and make sure your datums is
correct, when comparing to the factory specs. Look behind the hat shelve you
will find a bob weight there already (part of original design) then check the
elevator control arm in the tail. There was a recomedation to drill additional
holes in this arm to effectivly shorten it stroke. If there is only the one
holding the bold then that would be your most likly solution.
There's a CD availible with back issues of the Lancair Network
News (LNN) where you'll find heaps of good or not so good advise.
From all the info I collected it appears that the small tail
is not as bad as some make it to be, but its a CG thing, Check your CG !!!
Lancair later made availible a longer engine mount to enable, amone
others, to move the CG forward.
If you don't get joy I can forward you all the info I have on
it.
Good luck
