Thanks,

Unfortunately I'll be waiting 'til atleast closer to spring to put 'r in the air. I will post an update when that happens.

FYI... I came out at exactly 7lbs. On the first page of this thread someone posted a link to a website showing a guy that built an all chrome contender. His came out at 8lbs and seemed to be okay. Guess I'm happy with 7lbs beings that I put some extras in this bird (leds, switches, 9volt battery, wire, etc...).

Balancing came out better than I expected with the elevator servo aft mounted too. I started out with the receiver pack under the fuel tank and with the lightening that I did to the fuse I actually came out nose heavy. Ended up moving the receiver pack aft of the rudder servo (right around the area and just aft of where the flap is in it's up position). Then moved the lighter 9volt battery under the fuel tank and the receiver near the leading edge of the wing. Put it on the balance jig and it's on the nuts per the plan.
