Default RE: Putting balance weights on the tail

Be sure the radios are charged enough and GREAT LUCK on the maiden flight. Be prepared for ANYTHING. It may want to climb or dive or roll. Altitude is your friend, get it up a ways and see if you can trim it. It would help if you had a helper to trim for you while you are busy fighting it. Teach them how to do it BEFORE you fly, in the air is no time for lessons. Tell them "If I say I need down trim - move THIS lever THIS way" etc. [sm=confused.gif] [sm=drowning.gif] Don't forget to write.
