Yes, the trim problem turned out to be operator error. I have the trim switch on the panel, not on the stick. This is because I have "auto trim" when using the auto pilot, which I will use on cross country. I was pushing the switch up and should have been pushing it down.

Nice job. The plane looks great! Did you figure out the problem with the trim?

First flight was 9/03/2020 at around 8am. Here is a link to the video that I put together from various sources.

No music because I prefer airplane noise.
