Hi, havnt' posted for a while but noticed your additions to the thread. Firstly get the weight down, I flew mine with a Wren 54 in the tail and batts in the front (NiMh x 3) from what I remember mine was 17 lbs dry and my C of G was 160mm from L/E and I found it perfect at that, it sat beautifully on landing. The one thing about them is they do take a good run up to get off and they land like an express train!!! Be warned, make sure your brakes work and I mean work on a switch that is easy to get at such as your trainer switch, don't put them on down elevator, put them on a switch it's far easier. Have fun flying it, they do look and fly awesome.
Wow 17lbs?? Do you still have it? I keep hearing about people who have had problems with the vert stabs yet mine is rock solid.
