I agree that others should test it as well.
It is really not that hard to test. A stable airplane will seek what ever speed it is trimmed for so there is no need to "precisely trim". The airplane will move to trim speed by design if it is stable.
The amplitude will grow smaller and finally disappear as the airplane arrives at trim speed.
It is really easy to test. Just get the airplane in a sembelance of level flight, pull back on the controls and let go.
If the airplane is stable, the blue and green will stop changing proportions in the windshield after a few minutes. If it unstable, the proportion of blue and green in the windshield will increase until you see all blue or all green.

Crumpp the whole point of my producing that test mission
for you was so that YOU could prove your point. My test was only a quick and dirty. Why aren't YOU taking the trouble to do some of the work yourself?
