30% Edge 540
19.6 lbs, yes it is heavy, old and ugly, they don't crash that way!
DLE55 23-8 Xoar
Fuel on the balance point

If I take off transitioning into harrier I remain solid whether I am level or climbing.

When I enter my harrier any other time the thing oscillates back and forth when attitude is likely from 20 degrees up to 70 or 80 degrees.

Throttle makes no change
Increasing or decreasing altitude, no change
Aileron control remains but can be scary

Would love to knock the bottle over with this one but just not comfortable to keep close to the ground for long enough to be successful.

Any chance anyone has figured out how to tame the beast? Only thing I can do is temporary by using opposite rudder and aileron, but that usually gets you out of harrier and hover positions when you don't want to.
