Banana Hobyy F-35 C.G.
What is the correct C.G. for the Banana Hobby F-35 Lighthing II ????
According to the manual should be at 380-385mm ( 15 inc from the nose of the plane)
The first flight did not indicate that the above C.G. is correct, infact it went from my hand4 feet forward nose down into the ground.
As far as my experienceI,m building and flying since 1978 and also aturbine waiver holder # fw 7700.
Thanks for your input.

Hey Av8r, I also have been flying for many years and the same thing happened to me, hand launched straight into the ground in a matter of one second. Reading other posts that seems to be the norm for this plane, $100 to throw it into the ground.

I have the same plane and I launch at full throttle and push my 1800 3S pack all the way up to the front of the plane. Its been working great. I tried a 3/4 launch and it didnt take off at all. Full has been no problem.
