SBach 342 - Weight and balance
With the mods complete I got my SBach on the scales. Here are the results:
Port main: 3.705 kg (8.151 lbs)
Starboard main: 3.607 kg (7.935 lbs)
Tail: 1.039 kg (2.286 lbs)
Total: 8.351 kg (18.372 lbs)
Looks like I'll have to move some weight from port to starboard.
I've come across a balancing method using one or more scales that looks good to me: http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=50141. I'm using a small digital scale at the moment and plan to pick up two more today so that all three wheels can be weighed simultaneously.

Have you heard about the Vanessa rig?

You need to add weight on the starboard wingtip until the weight on the starboard main rises up to 3.656 kg
