Default RE: Seagull Harmon Rocket

For those of you who are interested in more info about balancing this plane, here are my two cents. I installed an OS 46 fx with futaba 3004 servos in the stock locations (ie two elevator servos and rudder servos mounted in the rear). Mine came out way tail heavy. I ended up mounting the 600 mah receiver battery and 3 additional ounces of lead underneath the fuel tank to get it to balance.

I haven't gotten to fly this plane yet, but it sure looks great. Covering is great, parts fit is very good.

There isn't area in the cowl for cooling air to exit. Has anyone had problems with overheating?
