Hello!

I almost finished my ACE Cloud Dancer 40 ARF. All I have to do is mount the engine and I have some questions about it:

-orientation of the engine-if I mount it sideways, like in the manual, I will have problems with lateral balance of the model! Any suggestions? How did you mount your engine?

- CG-in the box there were two manuals (German and English). First one called for 159 mm from the LE (???) and second one says CG is on the wing main spar what seems reasonable.

- take off weight of my CD will be 2250 g (4,96 lbs) and specifications says 1900-2043g (4,2-4,5 lbs), so I am little concerned about it. CD is fixed gear and I used standard equipment:
4 SANYO 1400KR cells
Futaba 118 receiver
3 Futaba 3001 servos
2 Hitec HS-81 wing servos
Super Tigre 45 GS engine
How much does your CD-s weight?

- I will use ST 45 GS with standard muffler. It turns APC 11x6 with 11000 rpm. Any thoughts about performance and choice of the propeller?

Thanks
Mico
