Hey guys, it has been awhile since i blogged here. I just wanted to update everyone on my plane. I crashed it and brike the fuselodge into a lot of pieces

The good news is that I like this plane so much I ordered a new fuselodge. Tonight, while installing the fuel tank I discovered that the fuselodge has been modified. On page 59 of this blog I talked about glide issues with this plane. I found that moving the fuel tank back @2-4 inches really helped this plane to glide better. See post @ top of page 59. Well, tonight while installing the fuel tank i discovered that the new fuselodge is designed to prevent the fuel tank from going all of the way forward. the fuel tank is @2 inches back from the firewall. Some thought I was crazy for doing this but, it really did improvr the glide. Now it seems that the manufacturer agrees with that. So if you have an earlier version of this plane and the plane feels nose heavy with a full load of fuel, and it balances well empty and upside down, then moving the fuel tank back 2 inches will really help. My old one glided like it was on rails after i slid the fuel tank back. It did not glide very good with the tank all the way forward. Thought that I would inform others who have problems with this plane. Setup right and balanced right it is a very good flier.
