Default RE: GP Extra 300S 74" WS

Where did you balance the plane. I balanced mine at 5 1/2" from the leading edge. At this setting the aircraft flew nose heavy. I added four clicks of up-elevator at WOT. No airleron or rudder trim required. Yes, the aircraft has flown and I did up the low rate elevator to 1/2" up/down. The wind speed was 15 mph and very turbulent near the ground. Even under these conditions the Extra flew in an exceptional manner. I plan to fly it after work today and I'll find out more.
