OK I figured I'ld include my version of a plane balancer, all you need is a 2x6, a couple un sharpened pencils, and to drill a couple holes.
But now I have a question. I just finished putting the plane in the pics together and checked the balance. The instructions say that it should balance anywhere from 3.75" to 4.33" back from the leading edge. Mine balances right at the front mark of 3.75". After the first flight yesterday, it seemed like it wasnt real steady flying, controls were sensitive, wouldn't level itself out. I've heard that if the planes balanced to far forward or rearward, that it will not fly very good. Can someone please tell us how this works. ie .. balance toward the front mark and it's more stable, or towards the rear mark and its more stable???? I always tryed to balance other planes in the middle of the 2 marks, but this plane is perfect without no weight at the front mark, so I left it alone.

NOTE: This is my first aerobatic plane, have had high wings before this. How will this plane handle differently then the high wings??

Thanks.
