Default RE: help with balancing nexstar


ORIGINAL: YNOT

-----DO NOT REBALANCE THE PLANE. IT IS NOT TAIL HEAVY!!!!!!!!!!! IT IS PERFECT!

----- Do NOT add weight to the plane. It is not out of balance, the person telling you this is just unfamiler with the NexStar and I don't care how long they have been flying, it doesn't need nose weight.

----I'm right and they are wrong on this one.
You're only right if this is a NexStar Select. If it's the ARF it could be configured quite differently than the Select. For example, it could be powered by a lighter engine than the OS .46 FXi in the Select, thus requiring balast.
