When I push hard forward to increase airspeed.....the cambridge VSI
goes up to 10knots positive.

Then when I pull back to bleed off airspeed.....the VSI goes down to
10 knots negative.

The manual says to increase the % , but doesn't say how much.

Another option is to not use the te tube and put it at 100%.

The te probe in my glider is located about 6 feet behind the wing spar
on the top of the fuselage. *It's not the conventional spot on the

Any thoughts? *Recommendations?

Scott,

Go to screen 10 on the CAI 302 and note *the indicated airspeed. *You
may have the Pitot & static switched. *Which mode are you in when this
happens climb or Cruise?

At TE probe requires that the Compensation be set at 0%. *The Probe
supplies the Compensation.

To be clear, you can adjust the compensation when using a TE probe.
Normally a small percentage to correct compensation issues, but
usually not needed. The manual appears to say you *must* use 0 when
using a TE probe. But this is wrong. And the manual also contradicts
itself and explains you can do this tweaking. But none of that is of
course related to the problem described here.
