Thanks all. I adjusted the range and the valve was only opening 3 to half of max. It's now max. Photos attached.

Very happy to have learned this.

Best,

Hope you got it fixed, Sean. May not mean anything, but in the photo on the right (the left hand valve control), the lower nut is not up against the drive tube. Might make it hard to close because you are now counting on a spring somewhere to close the valve? Or, were you still in process of adjusting at that time? I got to fly half or so of a task with about 150 lbs of water in one wing, the other empty because a valve didn't close. Turned great one way, but not so good the other!
