BKNAWS
I'm so glad you survived a wild maiden... From your spec's, you should have had a great flying plane.
I know you had trouble keeping it from looping, but could you tell if it was stable in...

I'm the one with the Saito 82. It flew at the recommended CG, but it landed a little hot and did not want to flair. Inverted flight took a lot of down trim.
I relocated the battery moving the CG...

Just to confirm what others are saying... Balance on the wing tube then adjust to suit your flying style.
I slowly moved the CG back until it would Knife-Edge w/o pitch coupling.

Sullivan or Hobbico Jumbo Starter Cone

I'm looking for either a Sullivan or Hobbico Jumbo starter cone for 3" and up spinners. I'll also consider starter and Jumbo cone combinations as well. Thanks in advance.

I think I had the Lyon Models version. (48in) in the early 90's. I powered mine with a YS 1.20. Mine flew a little squirrelly until I reduced the top wing incidence -1 deg compared to the bottom...

I can tell you what worked for me. Mine came out a bit tail-heavy, so I used an older .61 two-stoke and an unused extra nicad battery under the tank for balance. It still flew like it was filled...

I used a 4c 2000 mA. I wrapped the battery in electrical tape and glued it to the side of the fuse near the back of the wing. Nothing fancy at all. Sorry no picks.

Not at all. I cut power about 1-2 feet off the runway and let her settle on the mains. At full flap, she sticks like glue. At half-flap, she can bounce if not careful. Of course, your plane may...

Better question...Does it work for you?
I use more than 75 degrees of flap on my TF P-51. At those angles, it is more of a speed brake. I use throttle to control the descent. Much easier to me...
