I was talking to a friend, who's raced at Reno, about building a fast homebuilt airplane. I mentioned the GP-4, and he told me about his experience flying one and trying to fly formation with one. He said the flight controls were not well harmonized. He explained that pitch and yaw were not too bad. But, that roll was just too twitchy. He said the airplane was exhausting to fly because of this, and it was not a good aircraft for formation flying.

How would one go about fixing this? Is there a good book on the topic?
