My recently completed AW 260 Extra has had about twenty flights and flies very well with the following exception. When I am doing low speed loops it twists out of the loop and rolls off to the side. If I do the loop at higher speed and of larger diameter she track well. Balance is good and right on the recommended points. I am flying at low rates 30 degrees elevator and all surfaces appear straight. Using a DA 50 with a TBM 22-8 prop. No slippage in linkages and servos are HS 5955TG. No warping detected on any surfaces. Rudder and elevator gaps sealed but wings are not. Any suggestions?
