If it is over about three degrees, you have a large problem......

That is when something amazing happened, with full up elevator, the tail tied down and brakes applied, at 1/2 throttle,the tail came up! The outer wing panels were not installed and I only had about two gal. of fuel in the header tank. Has this happened to anyone else? I never seen a control surface generate that much lift with full opposite deflection.
