I'm in the process of building this plane and i would like to know if my equipment will fly it. I have a park 370 outrunner, eflite 20amp esc, 4 hitec 55 servos, 4ch gws receiver, 900mah 3cell and a 1320mah 3cell battery. This setup work good in my eflight tribute and the 3d foamy vto. Is the tiburon easy to hover, does it have a good roll rate, and is it good at knife edges. Would the same setup fly the biplane version of this plane¿ Thanks Patrick

RC kid, I made the Tiburon bipe from plans. I made G-force style wings. It flys great with a Hacker A20-22L and a 1320 3 cell. Plenty of power at 14.8 ounces. Straight down elevators and no wing rock at any harrier angle. My favorite foamy by far.

Two 3rds from the leading edge of the wing.
put your fingers under the wing, one on each side and balance the plane. Make a mark
when the nose goes ever so slightly nose heavy you are about right for your first flights
