Default Balance

I have checked the balance and it is just less then an 1/8" of the center of the range the book gives. I really should not say drops like a rock but without fair forward speed it looses alt fast. I can slow my Airvista trainer and just about catch it in my hand but not so with the tiger. When setting it up I was worried about Tail heavy as just sitting there with an empty tank it you could just slightly bump it and the nose would flip up as the tail went to the ground. So that is why I balanced so carefully. (I had to move the battery but now it is just about perfect.) - Proplem could be pilot. Seems like trying to land on a carrier! Slope, glide plane, angles seem too tight for my skills!

thanks
