Default RE: A-10 Project

Hi: Your A-10 is really looking nice! I have mine half covered and sat it on the gear yesterday and discovered that I have to add 7 ounces of lead on the nose just to keep it from sitting back on its tail cone. I'll be interested to see how much total weight I will have to add to balance it on the CG after I get the engine nacelles painted and everything in place on it. Since mine is a lot smaller model than yours and I can only fit 4 ounce tanks (as per the plans) in it, I'm wondering what size fuel tanks you will be using with those ducted fan engines. Thanks for posting the "progress" photos - its really looking GOOD![8D]
