Default RE: Harrier 3D C/G Question

Thanks Adrian. I just finished the model today. It balances at 175 mm from the leading edge. I has a Saito 100, Hitec 475's for the Ailerons and Elevators and a 5625 for the rudder. I put the Dubro 2-56 hardware on all surfaces and Dubro high strength servo arms. Right now I can get more than the 3D travels on every surface. This is the first 3D plane I have ever done so I will be pretty cautious to start with. In fact I have ordered an Accel Katana with the YS. 63FZ from OMP and if it comes quickly it may get flown before the Harrier. I would rather pile up a cheap profile that takes four hours to put together than the Harrier. On the other hand if the weather looks good in the next couple of days I may not be able to resist the temptation and put it in the air. I have a cheap fish scale to weigh the plane with and it shows it's right around 8 lbs. I am looking forward to learning this plane. Happy New Year.
