I did a hang test on an ultra white 503, I have a problem but I'm at a loss to know why.
I get 4 on the mast and 15 on the keel with 5 gallons of fuel. (standard 7 gallon seat tank) nuetral stick with me sitting in the machine 2' off the ground.
Empty, I get get 3 on the mast and 13 on the keel. Pretty much the same with 1 gallon of fuel (reserve)
On the ground I got 3.5 on the keel and 12.5 on the mast or 8-8.5 degrees, it should be 9 degrees.
I used a degree scale used in construction, it is new and checks out when placed on an upright framing stud in the hanger.
The tires are all at 30 psi and the gyro was level side to side when I checked it on the ground
The machine is completely stock, built from a RFD kit.
