Hi!
I understand that there are some people that cannot do what I say but to most of us there is no problem lifting a 0-15kg model airplane with our fingertips.
What I want to point out is that you do not need any fancy gadgets to balance a simple thing as a model plane.
And further more...I get the impression that some people think that balancing is only done once. Which is certainly not the case.
To have a good (perfect) flying plane you have to villing to adjust the Cof G perhaps many times (moving the servo, bttreries ) untill you get the balnce point as you want it.
And the rule of thumb is to get it as far as back you can without having the plane behave badly in any way.
