Default RE: wooo hooo my magnumR has arrived

use a hair dryer to warm the plastic then shape the rear a bit different.
never even thought of that i have done it now and the wing fits much better .. thanks for that tip phillybaby

also be careful tightening that wing bolt, the ni-cad doesnt look far away. weird to see it there and not up the *****, maybe that nose is a bit longer now
the instructions say mount the battery on the balsa sheeting in front of the wing mounting plate i also check to see if the battery was being hit with bolt and so far it does not seem to be


as to the CG i have it set at about 135mm the instructions say 120-130mm from the wingroot
im not to sure about this part but i think its from where the wing mounts at the front..i have enclosed some pics...1 pic with 4 black marks at 120mm and 130mm if someone would not mind telling me if have done this correct
