Glen; You need to go over your baffling with a fine tooth comb, 100 degrees of difference is a bit much.
Your airplane was rigged and tested with a pilot only. Add weight to the other side and it will react to that weight. If it bothers you, have it tweaked for flight with a passenger.

I have noticed that cylinders 1 and 2 are running at around 360 degrees and cylinders 3 and 4 are around 260. Is this normal? is this a problem? In level flight, with just me aboard, the plane flys hands-off straight and level. With two aboard, it drops the right wing slightly and turns right. Has anyone else had this issue and how is it adjusted? Glen Glen Davis 917 297 1111 www.ishootpictures.com www.ercoupepilot.com
