Stall Horn activates on Take Off
I have a 49A and occasionally the stall horn sqawks on Take Off for a second or two.....It usually happens as the tail starts to fly (coming up) ....Does anyone else experience this?

Re: Stall Horn activates on Take Off
It sounds as if it's doing it's job. But if you want to adjust it, then loosen the lift-detector's mount-screws and adjust it upward a slight amount and retest.
The stall warning should "sound" approx 5-10 mph prior to the actual "break" in smooth air, at forward c.g.
