ORIGINAL: Cryhavoc

I've been reading all the posts and there's some excellent info here regarding this plane. I've just ordered mine two days ago and have an OS .91FX that I intend to use with it. Has anyone else used this engine with this plane? Also I read about some of the CG issues, and then found the build and flight review, located at: http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/a...article_id=579 Has anyone here set their plane up in this configuration? ie., with the receiver and battery pack in the aft fuse position? Seems like that would solve quite a few problems. I also ordered the tailwheel for mine.

The main reason I got this plane was due to all the good posts here and I'm just tired of having to put my giant scaler's together everytime I want to go fly. I just want a nice fun 3D plane that I can put in the car quickly and go have some fun. This sounds like the perfect plane for that.
This is a great plane Cryhavoc. In fact, mine is going out today for a few flights. That OS .91FX will be awesome on the plane. I run the Super Tigre G-90 which is about the same. I always have people at the field tell me how solid the plane looks and feels and they really like the checkerboard on the bottom. You'll need to do something with the bottom as its pretty much the same as the top. Its not to bad on a sunny day but when its cloudy, you need all the help you can get The plane goes together really well and I think you'll enjoy it.
