Balanc a 3 blade prop

Thanks...

G-26 in a CMP hellcat?

I would like to know if a G-26 will fit in a CMP Hellcat 71" WS. Will the motor be to heavy for this plane? Will the engine fit within the cowl?
Thanks

RE: Realflight G3.5 Bad disks?

you might want to try to turn off your firewall if you have one. I had the same problem and Norton was doing it, turned it off and it went in fine. You have to do it with every expansion pack also.
