plane looks good and is coming along nicely. i like your paint scheme choice as well. here is a pic of mine but i am sure most of you have seen it being she is up for sale right now. she has a 250 radial in her. and you are going to need to add some nose weight like ali said. even with the 250 in the plane my batteries are still foward of the cg.

Thanks for the pictures and advice.I realized that I would have to use a lot of nose weight and therefore mounted no servos in the tail. Unfortunately, with the scale tail wheel and lots of glue needed to hold the hinges to the hollow surfaces I believe I will have to add lots of lead.At what location did you balance the model and have you flown it? Thanks Richard

Snake,

I've got a 215 Radial sitting around doing nothing. I wish I had $3500 sitting there with it!
