RC_SPORT,
It's a very easy build! I balanced mine out today and it required about 18 ounces of lead up front! The static weight is 13 1/2 pounds. The ST2300 should have no problem with it but it is sure no where near the 11 1/2 pounds the review stated. I used a balance point 4 1/2 inches back from the leading edge at the fuse side. The two elevator servos are in the tail and I'm using a MPI "Miracle Y" to reverse one of the servos. I am looking forward to the first flight as soon as the rain stops for a few days.
Happy Flying!
