Default RE: Global A1 Skyraider Kit ???

Happynicky,

I have just rebuilt a Global skyraider that a friend of mine crashed. I am afraid to try to fly it. It is taking a pound and a half of lead in the nose to balance it. I have the battery in the nose on top of the engine mounts and the reciever under the tank. The servoes are as far forward as I can get them. I have an OS 91 FS in it, and it is weighing twelve and a half pounds. I filled in the lightening holes in the fuse with light balsa and glassed it. I silked and doped the wing. It turned out beautiful, but I really wonder if it will fly. Any information you could give me about how much yours weighed and how it flew would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ron Ramer
