Lyle will just say, put the servos as far back as you can, Recevier and Battery between the servos and the fuel tank, and fly it...

That's what I thought too but I'm pretty sure that's where I started.. I think Bridge said 4.5" but that was a little jumpy.. I could be mistaken though, that was back in '05 I think..

You can do exactly what Dave said and it will probably be close enough.. They fly pretty good but make sure and keep on the right rudder for a while after take off.. Like all the way to #1
