Default RE: Wing balancing question

Best thing to do is to balance the aircraft laterally.......with the wing attached to the fuslage with the tail plane installed. Just have a helper balance the tail with one finger, you grasp the prop shaft.........then see which wing is heavy. The muffler hanging on the side of the engine can make the airplane heavy to one side also.
