There's some controversy about balancing also, some say full and some say empty. For the most part the tank is on the CG so it shouldn't matter but I say and do balance mine with what fuel I expect to be in the tank when landing which is 5 ounces, this gives me just under 5 minutes to make/miss a couple of approaches for landing. In my opinion with this plane you do not want to fly it till dead stick and do want to use a timer and stick to it.


Here's a 157 page thread about this plane http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_45..._1/key_/tm.htm
