I'm sure others have opinions also, but my favorite comment on the Queen Bee .074 was that it had the raging power of an .049 and the weight of a .10.

If you want a Norvel .074, you're best bet may be to just buy one from Norvel off their site.

The CG should be shown on the plans, but I think on the main spar should get you started. Also, be careful of the aileron throws on the first flight, this thing will roll like crazy.

On the battery, anything around 300 mah should do you. If you PM me your address, I'll send you a 350 mah nimh pack for free.
