tammimmiller -> Challenger11 (3/26/2008 5:58:24 PM) HI, Does anyone know the E-Mail address for an expert who has written articles on balancing model airplanes?? Why?- I have a pusher-type plane "Challenger 11" from Nitro Planes. The instructions recommended C.G. at 105mm, but the cord of the wing is 303 mm which should make MAC at 85mm. Recently I have seen a simular "Challenger 11" crash. It had 15 seconds of uncrollable flight- I have no idea why- but I suspect it was an improper C.G. coupled with huge reccomended throws. Help please before maiden flight- thanks again guys!

opjose -> RE: Challenger11 (3/26/2008 7:39:30 PM) Could you post a link to the plane? I do not see it on their site. The only Challenger is the Pitts. When I use Google the only reference I find is for a Challenger II from Hobby Lobby... not Nitroplanes.com.

tammimmiller -> RE: Challenger11 (3/28/2008 5:38:03 PM) I bought the plane from Nitroplane for about $109.00 and they no longer sell it! Anyway, I thought it was cute, and I am converting it to electric and I want to use it as a digital camera ship. I don't know if it is the exact same plane being sold by Hobby Lobby (just morre expensive!) I'll check it out. Thank you for replying!! Tammi

opjose -> RE: Challenger11 (3/28/2008 5:43:05 PM) If it looks like the Hobby Lobby version then I think I know which one you are talking about... There was a thread here where everyone was discussing the C.G. issues with this plane.
