Barry, I am on my second U-CAN-Do and it is set up exactly like yours, SAITO-82 and the CG set at 5.5 inches. I have not flown the plane yet and was wondering is there anything out of the ordinary I should watch for with this set up. My first U-CAN-Do suffered major failure of the horizontal stab while it was powered by a OS 50 sx, I added tail wires this time so hopefully I wont loose another aircraft to stab failure again.

I'm on my 3rd UCD46. I love these planes but I have a tendency to get a little wild on occasion and have an incident that results in my carrying the plane home in a paper bag. But they really are great planes and I love to fly them. I have mine set up with a Saito 82 and a CG of 5 5/8" I works great there. My others have had similar CG. From 5 1/4 to 5 3/4. This is one of the easiest landing planes I've ever seen and yet it can do the wildest 3d stuff ever. It's not a perfect plane but it's a darn nice one. And it's very forgiving. The CG is very flexible and anywhere in the 5 1/4 to 6 range really is good enough.
Thanks,
Barry
