RE: Great Planes Escapade .40 ARF
While I've been waiting for my replacement wing I went ahead and finished up everything else except for battery placement. There aren't many options, but hopefully I can balance the bird properly with the battery so I don't have to add additional weight. It seems most have found that initially balancing the plane per the books recommendation (2.5" from leading edge) has provided less than desirable flight characteristics, and when removing all theadded weight, though more tail-heavy,they found the plane more enjoyable to fly, and landings to be slower.
Is thispurely a CG issue, oran exampleofthe plane being overweighted after all thelead added to get the CG at 2.5"?A combination of both, maybe?
