I'll think about it Dave, maybe I won't give up just yet. I went looking for my wing loading notes, but I can't find them. I'll re-estimate and re-weight and post. Because it may be too heavy to be worth the effort. I thought I was ending up in Estes Sweet V territory, but I might have miscalculated.

I think it's neither diving, nor stalling. (Had to think about the grammar I wanted for a second.) It looks like it has a left yaw that I wasn't able to trim out. Could be that blasted warp. And a left roll. I'll have to revisit the left-right balance (I was focused on the Cg previously) or maybe use clay (eek, more weight) if there is a dLift/dY. And, now that I've looked it up, I think 'mushing' is a good description of what it was doing.
