RE: help with balancing nexstar
britbrat is quite correct! If it is not the select it is very easily possible that it may be tail heavy. Rule of thumb is "Nose heavy Planes fly bad", and "Tail heavy Planes fly once!" This is not always the case, and is just a saying, but many Planes have met there end just because they were to tail heavy, and uncontrollable in the air. I always prefer to have a Trainer Plane just a touch heavy to the nose. Even some sport models perform O.K with a little extra weight to the nose. 3D style Planes are a different story, but no sense even talking about them at this point.
